The Trail Blazers announced! Will send Yang Hansen to the G League! Morant is suspended for one game by the Grizzlies

On November 2, the Portland Trail Blazers officially announced that Yang Hansen would be transferred to the Rip City Mixed Team of the Development League for training. Yang Hansen will return to the Trail Blazers on November 4 against the Lakers. In other words, Yang Hansen does not need to play games in the Development League for the time being, but is only sent down for training.

Trail Blazers team reporter Danny Marang reported that if Yang Hansen's playing time in the Trail Blazers is limited in the future, he will frequently travel between the Development League and the NBA. Yang Hansen's studio officially responded: Yang Hansen will increase the amount of training, enhance physical reserves and polish his personal skills. We hope everyone will give this young man more time.

Yang Hansen was decentralized, which was actually expected. Yesterday, the Trail Blazers narrowly defeated the Nuggets 109-107. Yang Hansen was DNP for the first time in his NBA career, and he was the only player on the Trail Blazers' roster who did not play. Lowe has officially returned, sharing the Blazers' playing time at the 5th position with Klingen and Reese.

Yang Hansen's physical fitness is still a serious problem. The offensive and defensive rhythm of the NBA is very fast. He will be out of breath after playing for four or five minutes. Even if the coach wants to give you more time, your physical strength cannot match the pace of the game. In addition, Yang Hansen's English communication has made limited progress, and there are still big obstacles in communicating with teammates and coaches.

In the NBA regular season this season, Yang Hansen played 5.8 minutes per game, scoring only 1.8 points, 0.8 rebounds, 0 assists, 0 steals, 0.4 blocks, 0.6 turnovers and 0.8 fouls. His three shooting percentages were: 22.2%, 0%, 83.3%, and the average plus-minus per game was -3. Before Lowe returned, Yang Hansen was nominally a backup center, but he often only played in the first quarter.

In this year's preseason, Yang Hansen averaged 18.5 minutes per game, scoring 8 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1 assist, 0.3 steals, 1.3 blocks, 2.8 turnovers and 5.3 fouls. His three shooting percentages were: 46.2%, 40%, 100%. At that time, the Trail Blazers gave Yang Hansen some time. His mistakes and foul control were not good. He played 4 preseason games and left the game with 2 fouls.

In this summer league, Yang Hansen played 24.4 minutes per game, scoring 10.8 points, 5 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 0.5 steals, 2.3 blocks, 3.8 turnovers, and 4.3 fouls. His three shooting percentages were: 45.7%, 33.3%, and 87.5%. Yang Hansen is the core of the Trail Blazers Summer League team and can dominate the ball. But when it comes to NBA games, he is just a role player.

Whether in the NBA or the Development League, Yang Hansen must improve his abilities in order to gain the trust of the coach and get more playing time. Next, let’s talk about Morant’s suspension. Today, the Grizzlies officially announced that Morant has been suspended for one game due to behavior detrimental to the interests of the team. Morant lost $272,000!

Yesterday, the Grizzlies lost to the Lakers 112-117. Morant played 31 minutes and scored only 8 points, 1 rebound, 7 assists and 1 steal on 3-of-14 shooting. Grizzlies head coach questioned Morant's leadership during the game, and Morant fired back at him! In an interview after the game, Morant told reporters: "If you have any questions, you can ask the coach, they don't want me to play."

What do you think of Yang Hansen being demoted? Additionally, do you think Morant will request a trade?
