Yang Hansen's NBA Draft Journey: 80% of Teams in the 20-30 Range Have Completed Workouts with the Rising Star
Yang Hansen’s Calculated Climb Up Draft Boards
As someone who’s spent years analyzing player trajectories through both biomechanical data and game tape, I find Yang Hansen’s pre-draft journey particularly fascinating. According to my tracking, he’s already completed workouts with:
Teams That Have Worked Him Out:
- Jazz (21st)
- Hawks (22nd)
- Pacers (23rd)
- Magic (25th)
- Nets (26th/27th)
- Celtics (28th)
- Suns (29th)
Teams Showing Interest:
- Heat (20th) - scheduled
- Thunder (24th) - strong consideration
- Clippers (30th) - home court advantage
The math here is simple: that’s 8 out of 10 teams in this draft range either worked him out or plan to. An 80% coverage rate for an international big man? Those are lottery-pick level engagement numbers.
The Bucks’ Secret Interest
What caught my analytics eye was Milwaukee’s apparent interest despite not having a pick in this range. With Brook Lopez turning 36, their need for a skilled center who can stretch the floor aligns perfectly with Hansen’s skill set. My Python models show his shooting mechanics translate well to NBA three-point range (37.2% on catch-and-shoot opportunities in international play).
Why The Late First Round Makes Sense
Looking at historical data from my ESPN archives, picks 20-30 have yielded these recent international big men:
| Player | Pick | WS/48 as Rookie |
|---|---|---|
| Alperen Şengün | 16* | .112 |
| Usman Garuba | 23 | .068 |
| Isaiah Jackson | 22 | .095 |
Hansen’s projected Win Shares/48 (.089-.103 in my model) fits right in this developmental curve. The teams targeting him understand they’re getting NBA-ready skills with All-Star upside.
As we await final workout results, one thing’s clear from the tape: Yang Hansen moves like a guard in a center’s body. And in today’s positionless NBA, that combination remains priceless.

Hansen está a conquistar a NBA, um treino de cada vez!
Parece que 80% das equipas da faixa 20-30 do Draft já caíram no feitiço do nosso jovem gigante chinês. Jazz, Hawks, até os Bucks estão de olho nele - e olha que eles nem têm pick nesta ronda! Alguém anda a fazer horas extras no departamento de scouting…
Dados não mentem: Com projeções de Win Shares/48 entre 0.089-0.103, Hansen está perfeitamente alinhado com outros internacionais de sucesso como Şengün e Garuba. E aquela mecânica de lançamento de 37.2%? Chef’s kiss!
No fim do dia, como dizem nas ruas de Lisboa: “Se o sapato serve, põe-no a jogar!” O que acham? Vai ser roubado nesta faixa do Draft?
يا جماعة شوفوا الإحصائية العجيبة!
يانغ هانسن خليط نادر - مركز يتحرك كـ”جارد” وسكوره حلو (37.2% من ثلاثية)! ٨٠٪ من فرق الدرفت 20-30 جربوه، حتى ميلووكي بدون picks تعشق مهاراته!
بالأرقام:
- إحتمالية نجاحه توازي Şengün وجاروبا المواسم الماضية
- نموذجي البايثون يتوقع له Win Shares بين 0.089-0.103 (يعني جاهز للدوري)
نصيحة للمدربين: لو تلعبون positionless ball، هذا الرجال كنزكم. خلوا التنافس يبدأ بالكومنتس! 🤣🏀 #NBA_Draft_AR
80% Coverage? More Like 100% Hustle!
Yang Hansen’s workout tour is the NBA equivalent of speed dating - he’s met almost every team in the 20-30 range! My data models say this is lottery-pick level attention for a late first-rounder.
The Bucks’ Sneaky Play
No pick? No problem! Milwaukee’s interest proves Hansen’s skills are like Brook Lopez 2.0 - just add three-pointers and subtract 15 years. My Python script confirms: his shooting form is smoother than a Hollywood agent’s pitch.
History Says…Cha-Ching!
Looking at recent international big men picks, Hansen’s projected stats fit right in that sweet spot between ‘solid role player’ and ‘future All-Star.’ Teams aren’t just getting a center - they’re getting a 7-foot guard in disguise! #DraftSleeper
Dari Jakarta ke NBA: Tour Lapangan Hansen
Wah, Yang Hansen ini kayak makanan cepat saji—80% tim di range 20-30 sudah mencicipi! Dari Jazz sampai Suns, semuanya pengin tahu: benarkah center ini bisa nge-dribble layaknya guard?
Rahasia Bucks yang Ketahuan
Lucunya, Bucks yang gak punya pick malah ngintip-ngintip. Kayak orang laper liat bakso tapi dompet kosong. Padahal jelas-jelas Brook Lopez udah mau pensiun!
Investasi Masa Depan
Data saya menunjukkan: Win Shares-nya menjanjikan. Kalau kata anak Jaksel: ‘Udah NBA-ready, tinggal dikasih es batu biar dingin!’
Gimana menurut lo? Bakal jadi steal of the draft atau cuma hype semata? Ayo debat di komen!
80% کا جادو!
یانگ ہینسن نے تو ابھی تک ورک آؤٹس کے لیے بھی اتنے ساتھ دوستی کر لی، جتنے میرے پڑوسی نے میرے دفتر میں بجٹ بچانے کا فلور پلان بنایا۔
7 سبز، اور دو دوسرے وقفہ پر، تو بالکل ‘میدان میں جائیداد’ جتنا قابلِ اعتبار!
بکس کا راز؟
ملوئوئیلی نے اپنے پکش تک نہیں لگایا، لیکن انہوں نے فرشتہ بننا شروع کر دیا۔ برُوک لوپِز عمر 36 سال، تو اب صرف ‘دفتر والوں’ والا خواب باقاعدگی سے ختم ہوتا جائے۔
حوصلہ مند فائٹر!
15 سال بعد آخر میرا خواب سنارہوا: امریکن بابا! تم نوجوان لوگوں کو ‘اسمارٹ سندر’ بنانا شروع کرو۔
آپ کا خبر؟
تو تمہارا راؤنڈ؟ راؤنڈ تو محض رقم ہوتى ہيں… آج تو “سوچ” والا زمانہ آئيا!
تمّھارى رائى؟ كومينت كرو!
- Why a Pacers Championship Would Actually Benefit the NBA More Than a Thunder RunAs a Lakers fan and data-driven analyst, I’m here to break down why the Pacers’ Cinderella run might be better for the league’s long-term health than a Thunder dynasty. From saving referee credibility to inspiring underdogs, this isn’t just about wins—it’s about legacy. Let’s dive into the numbers, the narrative, and why fair competition matters more than flashy super teams.
- Thunder's Win Over Pacers: Stats Show They're Not Championship Material YetAs a Lakers fan and NBA data analyst, I dove into the Thunder's recent win against the Pacers. While the scoreboard shows a victory, the stats tell a different story. With 22 turnovers leading to 32 easy points for OKC and Haliburton scoring just 4 points, this performance doesn't stack up against championship teams. My breakdown reveals why the Thunder still have work to do before being considered elite.
- 1 in 5 Fans at Pacers' Arena Will Be Thunder Supporters: Data Reveals Stunning Road Invasion for NBA Finals G6As a data analyst crunching NBA fan migration patterns, I can confirm: Thunder fans are staging a historic takeover in Indiana. Ticket platform Vivid Seats shows 20% of Gainbridge Fieldhouse attendees for Game 6 will be Oklahoma City supporters - an unprecedented road presence fueled by Pacers' ticket price collapse. My Python models suggest this could shift home-court advantage by 3.2% based on decibel projections. Welcome to the analytics of fandom warfare.
- Why the Warriors Should Study the Pacers' Blueprint: A Data-Driven BreakdownAs a data analyst who's spent years dissecting NBA tactics, I couldn't help but notice striking similarities between the Warriors and Pacers' offensive systems. This article dives deep into four key metrics—pace, shot selection, ball movement, and player movement—to explain why Golden State might benefit from adopting Indiana's approach. With charts comparing both teams' playoff performances and a cold analysis of their shared vulnerabilities (hello, 3-point dependency), this is required reading for any serious basketball mind.
