    Why didn't he sign with them? Why didn't they draft him?

    We should trade him to OKC for 5 first-round draft picks.

    Definitely. Then we'd have 5 chances to draft someone as good as Yang!

    He was also directing players on offense and defense.

    In the 4th quarter, he shoved the small guy almost off his feet to try to get him to defend the 3-point shooter.

    The last Trail Blazer I saw do something like that was Josh Hart, shoving another Blazer sideways to defend a 3-point shooter.

    The skill level of Yang has already been acknowledged, but Yang also has a high level of heart / effort level. Like what we saw from Clingan last season. Doing all the small things like screening and re-screening etcetera. And he's going to shove his own teammates if that's what it takes.
