Chinese center Yang Hansen, the Portland Trail Blazers' rookie, scored 15 points on Tuesday, leading the Blazers to a 93-87 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans in the NBA Summer League.

This marks his highest scoring game since joining the team.

Drafted with the No. 16 pick in the recent NBA Draft, Yang has made three Summer League appearances with the Blazers. Ahead of Tuesday's game, Yang outlined his goals: "Fewer fouls, fewer turnovers, and moving faster."

The 20-year-old center largely achieved those objectives. In addition to his 15 points, Yang contributed three rebounds and two assists. He committed four fouls and had three turnovers - both figures below his averages of 4.5 fouls and four turnovers per game from the previous two contests. Notably, Yang made three three-pointers during the game.

"I think I still need to build strength and be more aggressive in post-up plays," Yang commented after the game.

The Blazers will next face the Houston Rockets on Thursday.
