August 19th News Recently, ESPN analyst Tim Legler talked about Yang Hansen while participating in a podcast by another NBA reporter Adam Mares, who gave Yang Hansen a very high evaluation.

TimLegler compared Yang Hansen with other big men. He said: "Summer League has a lot of sophomore players who were drafted in the first or second round last year, many of them were inside players. I tell you, Young is better in this regard than anyone I have ever seen. He has confidence in doing these things because he has a lot of confidence in his understanding of the game, so he dares to direct, lead, and the coach encourages him to do it. I was very impressed by that."

"Early in his career, the most outstanding ability will be his organizational ability and passing. He will make his teammates better because he is a player who is willing to share the ball. He will want you to run and cut in actively, and he will know you will be in open positions before you realize it because he can predict the coverage of the defense in the pick and roll. It will be very beneficial for the team," TimLegler said.

Yang Hansen averaged 10.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 2.3 blocks, 3.8 turnovers, 4.3 fouls per game.
