Intense training! Yang Hanshen was elbowed in the eye during practice and has now moved to Miami for another round of specialized training.

On August 20, Beijing time, according to sports journalist "Wo Le Ge Hu Dou er," Yang Hanshen was elbowed in the eye during practice. The post humorously remarked, "If you didn’t say it was from training, I would have assumed he got into trouble and someone hit him."

Previously, journalist Zhou Peng, who has covered Yang Hanshen’s tryouts and draft journey, commented that the visible black eye clearly shows the high intensity of his training. Meanwhile, Hanshen has already headed to Miami for another round of specialized workouts and will later go to New York for various rookie training programs organized by the league.

After seeing Yang Hanshen get elbowed in the eye, fans began discussing the incident online. Some suggested Hanshen should buy protective goggles, while others joked that if his right eye got hit too, it would be "perfect."

Although there’s been little news about Yang Hanshen’s short training stint in the US, he remains a hot topic among American sports media. Recently, well-known basketball analyst Tim Legler also discussed Hanshen’s three-point shooting on a show.

"During the Summer League, he made a three-pointer after popping out from a pick-and-roll, and I’m optimistic about this aspect of his game. In today’s league, having more offensive skills—like a reliable three-point shot—can be a big advantage. Of course, I can’t say how soon he’ll master the pick-and-pop three, but just being willing to try it in games and showing coaches you have that in your arsenal is important, even if you’ve never done it before. I still recommend that Yang Hanshen work on his three-point shot, as it’s becoming a trend."

Let’s look forward to Yang Hanshen having an even better season ahead. The Trail Blazers will open their regular season against the Timberwolves, and Hanshen will likely get a chance to match up with Gobert.
