### Outline of the case
In the world of basketball, the NBA is undoubtedly the highest temple. For Chinese players, being able to step on this stage is not only a symbol of personal honor, but also a manifestation of the country's basketball strength. Recently, a piece of news about the NBA draft has attracted widespread attention: Qingdao player Yang Hansen received an official second-round pick commitment from the NBA, which is the first time that a Chinese player has been given such an opportunity since 2003. ✨
### Event body
Fu Zhenghao, a veteran media person, revealed that the Qingdao team communicated with a number of NBA scouts, but did not receive a clear draft pick commitment. Despite this, Yean's potential and strength have been recognized. Back in 2003, the Mavericks (now the Mavericks) promised to select Zhu Fangyu with a second-round pick, but because the Guangdong team was going all out to win the championship, Zhu Fangyu ultimately failed to make the trip. Zhu Fangyu's story has become a regret for Chinese basketball, but it has also laid a solid foundation for Chinese players to be in the NBA.
Yang Hansen's CBA playoff performance will directly affect the Qingdao team's attitude towards his participation in the NBA. In his first game after the regular season, Yang Hansen played only eight minutes, scoring 2 points and 2 rebounds, apparently preparing for the playoffs. And his showdown with Cui Yongxi is regarded as a contest between the new generation of the Chinese men's basketball team. The performance of the two young players is not only related to their personal future, but also affects the development of Chinese basketball.
### Event impact and summary
Yang's NBA journey is not only an important step in his career, but also a showcase of Chinese basketball on the international stage. The 21 years of waiting have witnessed the growth and progress of Chinese basketball. From Zhu Fangyu's regret to Yang Hansen's opportunity, Chinese players have always been full of challenges and hopes in the NBA.
Qingdao team coach Liu Weiwei's statement also reflects the team's attention to Yang Hansen's future development. He stressed that the team has never objected to Hansen Yang's move to the NBA, but hopes that he can take the step when he is more mature. At the same time, Liu Weiwei's plans for this summer's offseason, including national team training, European training and matches with strong teams, all show the Qingdao team's support and expectation for Yang Hansen's all-round growth.
### Conclusion
The 21-year wait is not only the passage of time, but also the continuous efforts and struggles of Chinese basketball♂️ Yang Hansen's story is the epitome of Chinese players' pursuit of the NBA, and it is also a testimony to the continuous progress of Chinese basketball. Let's hope that in the near future, more Chinese players will be able to stand on the stage of the NBA, show their talents, and write a new chapter for Chinese basketball.
