LAS VEGAS, United States, July 11 (Xinhua) — Chinese center Yang Hansen scored 10 points, grabbed four rebounds, and dished out five assists to help the Portland Trail Blazers to a 106-73 victory over the Golden State Warriors in an NBA Summer League game on Friday.
Selected as the 16th pick in last month’s NBA Draft, 2.18-meter Yang also recorded three blocks and one steal, while committing three turnovers and six fouls in 23 minutes and 35 seconds of play.

“I like passing the ball and I was just trying to do what the coach told me to do,” he added.
The Blazers face the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday. â–
