Yang Hansen Expected to Join Blazers for Summer League
According to Sean Highkin, Portland Trail Blazers center Yang Hansen will participate in the Las Vegas Summer League after competing for China in the FIBA World Cup qualifiers. Because the 21-year-old has international games scheduled for July 3 and July 6, he will arrive late to Vegas and miss the opening exhibitions. The former first-round pick is coming off a quiet rookie campaign, averaging 2.2 points and 1.5 rebounds in 7.0 minutes per game across 43 appearances. With Portland looking for reliable frontcourt depth behind Donovan Clingan, a solid showing in his limited summer action could help Hansen carve out a larger role entering training camp. Although he remains an intriguing dynasty stash, the big man won't be a redraft target until he secures a consistent spot in the rotation.
