It was no longer just his personal achievement, but a further enhancement of the NBA's global influence.
Hansen's response not only stirred the imagination of Kings fans but also filled fans worldwide with anticipation.
However, before that, Hansen has another very important task: the East University World Cup.
The East University Men's Basketball Team had already started comprehensive training as early as May, with elite players present.
Besides Hansen, other NBA players like Ding Yanyuhang, Zhou Qi, and Zou Yuchen were also part of the team.
Moreover, under Yao Ming's vigorous promotion, East University connected with the global scene and acquired its first naturalized player.
FIBA allows each country to have one naturalized player slot, which most countries use, including basketball powerhouses like Spain and Germany.
However, due to some objective constraints, East University had not pursued this before, but this time, with various factors combined, it finally succeeded.
