Chinese rookie Yang Hansen drew attention with an impressive performance in the NBA preseason.
Brother, did you watch the basketball game yesterday? I heard from Dad that there was a Chinese player who played really well!
Of course I watched! His name is Yang Hansen, and he’s a new player in the NBA. Yesterday he scored sixteen points in just seventeen minutes on the court.
Wow, that’s amazing! There are so many foreigners in the NBA—wasn’t he scared?
He’s very brave and calm. Even NBA commissioner Adam Silver praised him and said he has a bright future.
Do you think he’ll become as famous as Yao Ming?
It’s possible! But he still needs to practice a lot and play more games to become even stronger.
I want to learn basketball too—one day I want to join the NBA like him!
Great! Let’s start by practicing shooting for ten minutes every day, starting with the basics.
