Comparing data from Yang Hansen and Klingen Xialian, I understand why Billups said that choosing Yang Hansen made a big profit

Yang Hansen averaged 11.7 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks in the first three games of the NBA Summer League! Moreover, from the perspective of performance trend, Yang Hansen is more adaptable and more outstanding as he plays. By the third summer league game, Yang Hansen's score had reached 15 points!

The Trail Blazers' head coach Billups praised Yang Hansen's performance and spoke out to the outside world that when he chose Yang Hansen with the No. 16 pick, there were many doubts from the outside world! Now that Yang Hansen performs like this, it can naturally prove everything.

Judging from Billups' statement, Yang Hansen's performance is obviously worth the money! For Chinese fans, everyone is very concerned about whether Yang Hansen can enter the rotation lineup in the new season and whether he can have an impact on Klingen's starting position!

This article provides you with a comparison data basis by comparing the summer league data of Klingen and Yang Hansen.

Klingen and Yang Hansen, who played in the NBA Summer League last summer, averaged 25.4 minutes per game, scored 9 points, 12.3 rebounds, 2 assists and 4.3 blocks, shooting percentage of 35.7% and free throw percentage of 50%.

Then, compared with Yang Hansen's data averaging 11.7 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 2 blocks and 1 steal in the first three games, we can draw the following clear conclusion:

First, in terms of overall performance, Yang Hansen, who is ranked 16th and Klingen, who is ranked 7th, have the same playing time and position in the team in the summer league, both of which are around 25 minutes, and they are both core members of the team! This allows Yang Hansen to remain optimistic about his NBA rookie season, because the club can see the importance attached to it.

Second, according to the data, Yang Hansen and Klingen are on the same level, but the characteristics of both sides are completely different! Klingen is an absolute defensive gate, while Yang Hansen is an offensive player.

Third, Klingen's data in his rookie season was almost half lower than that in the summer league, but he served as the team's rotation lineup! Therefore, it is expected that Yang Hansen's rookie performance in the rookie season is not under much pressure to enter the rotation lineup. In terms of data, it is still expected to score 7 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks.

From this perspective, the Trail Blazers only chose a player with the No. 16 pick and was basically the same level as the No. 7 pick, which naturally made a lot of money!
