Good sign? Yang Hansen's tears on the sidelines spark heated discussion in US media: a prominent reporter openly favors his future potential

On October 17th Beijing time, Yang Hansen’s tearful exit after committing his sixth foul attracted attention both in China, trending online, and also sparked discussions in US media.

Reporter Victor Sun posted footage on social media showing Hansen crying, commenting: "After fouling out, Hansen sat on the bench in tears — but he cries not because he’s fragile, but because he truly cares."

NBA insider O’Connor commented in the discussion section: "I’m even more optimistic about Yang Hansen’s development now."

US media outlet NBA University wrote: "Genuine concern is already impressive, and now we’re going to root extra hard for young Yang."

Portland Trail Blazers fan account SleeperTrailBlazers said: "This is actually a very positive sign. You always want players to be genuinely invested, have pride, and take responsibility. He’s definitely going to become outstanding, we all can see that."

Trail Blazers fan Thumper also showed strong support for Hansen. He wrote: "We’re witnessing a rising star right before our eyes! He’s so committed and now deeply in love with this team, it’s amazing. Damian (Lillard) shares the same passion — it’s because you (Hansen) care so much that you belong to the same kind of people. Brother, stay patient, you will definitely excel!"

Trail Blazers fan Tyler added: "All my brothers love Yang Hansen and are cheering for him!"

After four preseason games, Yang Hansen averages 8 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1 assist, 3 turnovers, and 5.3 fouls per game. He still has many issues to work on. Let’s look forward to his regular season debut. The Trail Blazers will face the Timberwolves in their first regular season game, where Gobert and Reed will be potential opponents. What kind of performance will he deliver? Everyone is welcome to share their thoughts in the comments.
