The American media suggested that the Lakers choose Yang Hansen! No. 55 can't get him anymore? Picks may need to be traded upwards

On May 23, Beijing time, the American media PRSN posted a potential selection target for the Lakers' No. 55 pick, and Yang Hansen was among them. The problem is that in the past period of time, Yang Hansen's draft market has risen significantly, and the Lakers' pick is likely to not be able to select him. Some fans suggested that the Lakers trade draft picks upwards and not miss the Chinese rising star.

When PRSN mentioned the Lakers' potential selection target, it mentioned the name of Hansen Yang and explained it as follows-

"Chinese player Yang Hansen is 2.16 meters tall and weighs 115 kilograms. He excelled in NBA joint tryouts, showcasing great foot movement, feel, and a deep understanding of the game. In matchups, he was strong and was able to suppress defenders when he was strong inside. ”

"The Lakers don't need a big man who can score, but they desperately need height inside. At just 19 years old, Yang is a potential player to be developed, and his development seems to have exceeded expectations. If he hadn't been drafted and hadn't been drafted with the 55th pick, it would have been hard to miss him for the Lakers, who are in dire need of a center. ”

The American media also reposted the topic of many fans discussing the Lakers and Yang Hansen-

"Hansen Yang is now signed with Klutch Sports? Then he will definitely become a Lakers player! ”

"I've been saying all year long that I want the Lakers to keep an eye on Hansen Young."

"It's no secret that Lakers general manager Rob (Pelinka) and Rich (Paul) have a good relationship, and it seems like a natural thing to push Young Hansen to join the Lakers, especially if this kid can play. He has a lot of sparkles in him, and he's only 19 years old. ”

"At 2.16m, Chinese star Yang Hansen is the ideal big man for any defender – and it's clear that his style of play is mimicking Jokic."

"The Lakers have to trade up for draft picks, and I don't care who I'm going to trade."

"The question is, is he going to hook up with Luka [Doncic]?"

On the draft professional website, Yang Hansen's prediction order has reached the 22nd place in the first round (Hawks), and the Hawks have been following Yang Hansen for two years. The US media previously reported that several teams were interested in him. From that perspective, it may not be possible for Young Hansen to fall to No. 55, and the Lakers may need to trade draft picks upwards if they want to draft him.
