Beth Holland+FollowTiago Splitter’s Blazers might be onto somethingSince taking over, Splitter has the Blazers sitting at 4–2 and 4th in the West — with wins over the Nuggets, Warriors, Lakers, and Jazz. Coming from the Spurs system, his mix of discipline and creativity is showing early. This team’s energy and defense look completely different. Could Portland have found their next great coach? #Blazers #TiagoSplitter #NBA #TrailBlazers #NBACoaching #RipCity #Portland192Share
Matthew Roberts+FollowBlazers assign Yang Hansen to Rip City RemixPortland’s rookie center Yang Hansen has been assigned to the team’s G League affiliate, the Rip City Remix, for practice reps and development time. The 19-year-old from China has shown flashes of rim protection and touch around the basket in preseason games. However, he hasn’t seen much court time so far in the regular season. This move should give him more consistent minutes to adjust to NBA pace and spacing. #RipCity #YangHansen #GLeague #TrailBlazers #Portland #NBA 121Share
