Trail Blazers Announce Assignment of Yang Hansen! Leads the Remix in Playoffs Today, Single-Game Elimination Aiming for Upset

On April 2 Beijing time, the Trail Blazers officially announced that the team has assigned Yang Hansen to the G League's Rip City Remix. The G League playoffs have officially begun, and Rip City Remix will face the Mexico City Capitanes in the first round. The game is a single-elimination format, and Yang Hansen will play for the Remix in the playoffs today.

In yesterday's Western Conference seeding battle, the Trail Blazers defeated the Clippers 114-104 away. Although Yang Hansen was recalled, he did not get playing time. This marks Yang Hansen's 20th DNP (Did Not Play) this season.

Earlier reports indicated that Yang Hansen had to fly three and a half hours from Los Angeles to Mexico City, Mexico early today local time to participate in the G League playoff game later. Although Hansen did not play in the game against the Clippers, the travel and奔波 are a significant test for his physical stamina and ability to adjust his condition.

During the G League regular season this year, Yang Hansen played 14 games, averaging 17.1 points, 9.2 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 0.7 steals, and 1.6 blocks per game. His shooting percentage was 62.4% (the highest on the team), his three-point percentage was 32.1%, and his free throw percentage was 75%.

The Remix finished the regular season 19-17, ranking seventh in the West to qualify for the playoffs. They will face the West's second-place Mexico City Capitanes at 10 AM Beijing time today. In their two regular-season meetings this season, the Remix won one and lost one. Except for the finals which are a best-of-three series, all other rounds of the G League playoffs are single-game elimination. Can Yang Hansen lead the Remix to achieve an upset? Let's wait and see.
