Yang Hanshen is facing a new challenge! After concluding their trip to Xinjiang with his girlfriend, he will head back to the U.S. to participate in the Trail Blazers' training camp.

On August 5, Beijing time, Yang Hanshen and his girlfriend wrapped up their journey in Xinjiang and are set to return to the U.S. soon for the Trail Blazers' training camp starting on August 11. Previously, several netizens spotted Yang Hanshen and his girlfriend in Xinjiang. His girlfriend also updated her social media, openly responding to Hanshen's message with, “loveu!” which officially revealed their relationship.

It is reported that this training camp by the Trail Blazers is an optional training session, consisting of two phases, designed for rookies and players looking to improve, building on the summer league experience. In the summer league, Yang Hanshen averaged 10.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 2.3 blocks per game. Although he had impressive performances, there were also noticeable shortcomings. Participating in the training camp will better prepare him for the upcoming training camp, preseason, and regular season.

Previously, the Chinese Basketball Association announced that due to a scheduling conflict between the Trail Blazers' training camp and the FIBA Men's Asia Cup from August 5 to 17, after comprehensive evaluation and considering both the athlete's personal situation and the long-term development of Chinese basketball, the association agreed to allow Yang Hanshen to skip the national team training and matches for the 2025 Men's Asia Cup, focusing entirely on preparing for the new season.

Yang Hanshen also took advantage of the precious time before going abroad again to spend quality moments with his girlfriend. His girlfriend's social media account was first discovered by fans. Shortly after Yang was selected by the Trail Blazers, fans pointed out that the bracelet he wore during the draft was identical to the one worn by that girl, suggesting they might have couple bracelets.

Additionally, the white suit Yang wore during the draft had the “i11” logo on the cuffs, similar to the first part of the girl's account. His sneakers during the summer league debut also featured “11❤,” clearly showing affection.

Now, their relationship is in a semi-public state, with generous interactions on social media, receiving a lot of support and blessings from fans. Yang Hanshen is about to embark on a new journey, and the training camp represents a new challenge. He has the opportunity to continue proving his abilities, address his shortcomings, and strive for more playing time in the new season.
