At the recent CBA All-Star Star Game, Yang Haozhe scored 7 points, 4 assists and 2 steals, and Tongxi general manager Huo Nan encouraged him: "The story continues, don't stop your steps."
Many fans know the name "Yang Haozhe" because of his wonderful performance in the variety show "This is a Slam Dunk". After he was selected by the Tongxi team, some fans said that he was an "Internet celebrity player". But Yang Haozhe himself is very modest and low-key, and through his unremitting efforts and the trust of the team, he can be said to have proved that he has the strength to compete in the CBA.
On March 17, Tongxi lost to Liaoning, Yang Haozhe played 44 minutes, shooting 7 of 14 from the field, with 20 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal, 20 points is also Yang Haozhe's new single-game scoring record in the season.

Yang Haozhe, who is only 183cm tall, can play in the CBA is a very inspirational story, he is from Beijing Sport University, but he is not a player from the class. At the beginning, Yang Haozhe was obese and lacked exercise, and his weight reached 190 pounds at one point, and he was also injured due to excessive weight. He made up his mind to lose weight, insisted on exercising, fitness, and changed his eating habits to have a good body.
Yang Haozhe only entered the North Sports Varsity Team in his junior year, which should be regarded as a late instrument. When he first joined the varsity team, he was still a substitute and sparring partner, and rarely had the opportunity to play. After participating in "This is a Slam Dunk", Yang Haozhe was appreciated by the coach, and later played better and better step by step, becoming one of the main players of the varsity team. Practical Jun also remembers that when Yang Haozhe was in college, he was called a "scoring machine" by fans.
After entering the CBA, Yang Haozhe faced a lot of doubts. Like his idol James, he stopped using his social media, focused on training, and began to transform and change his playing style to become a qualified point guard. The hard-working people deserve to be respected, and Practical Jun hopes that Yang Haozhe will recover as soon as possible, bring his love for basketball, and continue to play wonderful games!
