Plays in garbage time Friday Hansen played the final 48.9 seconds of Friday's 124-114 win over the Jazz, finishing with no statistics during his time on the court.

Impact Recalled from the G League's Rip City Remix prior to Friday's contest, Hansen was unable to crack the Portland rotation while the game was competitive. Even though the Trail Blazers were without their top backup center in Robert Williams (knee) on Friday, interim head coach Tiago Splitter opted to run out small-ball lineups when starting center Donovan Clingan was off the court. Hansen looks like he'll continue to receive limited run at the NBA level for the rest of the season while he's yet to gain full trust of the coaching staff.

Impact Hansen appeared during garbage time, continuing what has been a disappointing rookie season thus far. Although he has been able to see the court on most nights over the past month, his playing time remains largely underwhelming. In 12 appearances over the past month, he has averaged 2.1 points and 1.8 rebounds in 8.6 minutes per game. Outside of dynasty formats, he holds no fantasy value at this point.
