Yang Hansen made his debut in NBA rookie training, and was hit by an elbow in his eyes.

Previously, during the return to the United States, Yang Hansen was accidentally hit by an elbow and his eye sockets were obviously bruised. He posted photos in the latest updates, showing his eye sockets were black and scratches on his arms, reflecting the high intensity of training confrontation.

Yang Hansen missed the Asian Cup this time to prepare for the Trail Blazers' short-term training camp and take advantage of the opportunity to make adjustments. But the intensity of confrontation is still maintained during training. According to previous reports, he set off for the United States again on August 9 and will go to Portland to meet with the team, participate in pre-season training camps, and plan to go to many cities to participate in training camps and special training, and continue to receive official rookie training courses arranged by the league and the team.

At the 2025 NBA Draft held on June 26, the Portland Trail Blazers selected Hansen Yang with the 16th pick in the first round. He also became the third Chinese player to be selected in the first round of the NBA after Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian.
