PORTLAND’S BOLD GAMBLE: In the shock of the draft, the Trail Blazers traded down from No. 11 to No. 16 (via Memphis) and selected Yang Hansen — making him the THIRD Chinese player EVER drafted in the first round after Yao Ming (2002) and Yi Jianlian (2007)!
YAO’S FAITH REWARDED: Hall of Famer Yao Ming publicly backed Yang weeks ago:
“He’s a very talented, very nice kid… He deserves the best. The draft is just one step in his long career.”
Rip City bets on Yao’s vision — and a 7’1″ unicorn’s ceiling 🦄.
