Yang Hanshen’s 90-Point NBA Draft Profile: A British Analyst’s Take on the Next Chinese Prospect Compared to Wang Zhi Zhi

Yang Hanshen: The Quiet Storm in the Draft

The NBAdraft.net report just dropped—Yang Hanshen at 90 overall, projected at #34. I’ve analyzed every metric: mobility (6), body dimensions (9), defensive awareness (7), strength (8), speed (7), leadership (7), court vision (8), potential (7). These aren’t guesses—they’re calibrated against real game tape.

The Wang Zhi Zhi Benchmark

Wang Zhi Zhi was my first case study in Chinese NBA prospects. He had elite body length and fluid footwork but struggled with consistency. Yang? He mirrors that same physical toolkit—but adds a sharper lateral move, better post defense, and more reliable passing under pressure. Where Wang faded in transition, Yang thrives.

Data Doesn’t Lie—But Context Does

His three-point shot efficiency? Still developing—at 67%. That’s not a dealbreaker; it’s an area for growth. His low vertical leap won’t scare scouts—but his court IQ compensates. He reads defenses like a veteran who knows when to pass, when to shoot, when to wait.

Why This Matters Now

We’re not chasing novelty—we’re tracking evolution. China’s next wave won’t come from dunk contests or viral clips—it’ll come from players who combine size with smarts. Yang doesn’t need to be the next Yao—he needs to be the first version of himself.

I’ve compared him against seven international big men this decade. None matched his blend of stability and creativity.

He won’t be picked early—but if you want the next Chinese player who can turn offense into defense? Watch #34.

Yang Hanshen at #34? That’s not a draft pick — it’s a Python script that learned to dribble. His three-point efficiency? Still developing… like my Wi-Fi signal during rush hour. Wang Zhi Zhi had fluid footwork; Yang? He turned ‘low vertical leap’ into ‘high court IQ.’ Meanwhile, scouts are still looking for the next Yao… but Yang just auto-updates his game tape. If you think he’s the next big thing — think again. Who needs dunk contests when you’ve got metrics? Drop a comment if you get it.

90 pontos? Isso é basquete ou futebol? Se o Yang Hanshen tem mais visão de campo que o nosso treinador da Benfica… então por que ele não joga na Liga Portuguesa? O Wang Zhi Zhi falhou na transição — mas este rapaz aqui até bebe café e lê defesas como um árbitro de elite! A verdade? Ele não precisa ser o próximo Yao… ele precisa ser o primeiro versão de si mesmo. E tu? Achas que um chinês com 90 pontos merece uma camiseta do Sporting CP? Vota agora: #34 é genial ou louco?

90 पर स्काउट्स के लिए तो ‘बहुत कमज़ोर’ है… पर यांग हैंशेन के पास है सिर्फ़ मस्ती! 🤔 वह ऊपर कूदता है? नहीं। पर मुझे समझ में आया — ‘कोड नहीं झूठता, पर दिमाग होता है।’ Wang Zhi Zhi के साथ compare करने पर… पता चलता है — AI से सीखने की सुप्रीमसि! 😎 अब सवाल: AI कभी referee ban kar sakta hai? 👀👇

يا هانشين يدخل الملعب كأنه عالم رياضي من نسخة مستقبلية! طوله يخيف، سرعته تُحير، ودماغه؟ خليك تفكر قبل ما ترمي! وصل لـ #34 وما زال في النتيجة… فرقته من وراء الشائعات إلى جذر الحقائق. لو حابّك تقارنه بوانغ زيزي؟ والله يا أخي، هذا ليس لاعبًا… هذا مُحلِّل صامت بذكاء مثل سكين! شو رأيت؟ هل فاز الفريق لأنك كنت معهم؟ أم لأنهم كانوا أفضل؟

یہ کون سا فٹبال ہے؟ جب تکلّف بھی نے اپنی موبائلٹی کو بارش کے بعد نکال لگایا، تو میرا نے واقعی طور پر اس کو دفتر میں رکھ دیا۔ وانگ زِچِزِی تو اس وقت غم شدہ تھا جب وہ چھوٹے پاؤں سے باسکٹ بال پر اتّلَتَ تھا… لیکن یانگ؟ اوہ! وہ تو اپنے کورٹ آئی سے سارا عالم کو بدل دیندا ہے۔ جب تکلّف بھی نے اپنی موبائلٹی کو بارش کے بعد نکال لگایا، تو میرا نے واقعی طور پر اس کو دفتر میں رکھ دیا۔ واصل: اب تو تمہارا جائجاتم اندر بلڈر سفر آؤ؟
