The well-known American media "The Athletic" reporter Zach Harper listed the top 40 big players in the NBA. Yang Hansen ranked 25th, and Ayton ranked 30th.

commentator Su Qun commented on this, the original text is as follows:

This ranking has a strong personal color, but after all, it comes from an authoritative professional sports website and has a certain representativeness. I have two points to understand:

First, Ayton joined the Lakers, still carrying a heavy question mark on his back and questioned from professional sports media in the United States.

Second, Yang Hansen left a good impression on the American basketball media and became a hit.

But after all, it is just an impression, and there are too few samples for media to judge. Therefore, Yang Hansen should work harder to realize their expectations.
