Blazers Draft Hansen Yang from China 🤯🇨🇳 #nba #yanghansen #portlandtrailblazers
And then the Blazers go ahead and make one of the most shocking draft picks of all time by drafting Hansen Yang from China at pick 16. This started by trading back from their 11th pick to pick 16 and in so acquiring two more second round picks plus a first round pick and that was from the Memphis Grizzlies. And so overall it seemed like a pretty good trade. The Blazers move back only five spots and they gain an extra first round pick they can use in future negotiations along with what at the time seemed like recouping those second round picks they traded out with Anthony. And then the Blazers go ahead and make one of the most shocking draft picks of all time by drafting Hansen from China at pick 16. Now, I’ve actually come around quite a bit on the Hansen pick. At first, I’ll be honest, it wasn’t my favorite pick the Blazers have ever done. I didn’t know who this guy was, but after seeing all the reports that the Minnesota Timberwolves actually wanted him at 17 and then the Brooklyn Nets still had two picks later on in the first round that they were looking at drafting him with, if he was the Blazers guy, then I’m glad they went out and got him. And so, I’m really excited to see him play in summer league. Comment below if you want a whole video on that.
