The Miami Heat officially announced that the team has signed four players and increased the total number of the team's roster to 21. The four players are backcourt player Jahmir Young, backcourt player Gabe Madsen, backcourt player Trevor Keels and forward player Dain Dainja. According to Ira Winderman, a reporter from Miami local media The South Florida Sun Sentinel, these players received a training camp contract containing Exhibit 10 terms, and they all had the opportunity to launch a two-way contract.

Yang was born in October 2000 and is not yet 25 years old. He is 188cm tall and weighs 84kg. He was the undraft in the NBA draft last year. Yang first played for the Denver Nuggets' NBA Development League team Grand Rapids Gold at the beginning of last season. He performed quite well in the NBA Development League. He also received a two-way contract from the Chicago Bulls in February this year. In the NBA regular season last season, Yang played 4 games in total, with averaging 4.9 minutes per game, averaging 1.8 points, 0.5 rebounds and 1 assist, 0.2 turnovers and 0.3 fouls, with 80% shooting percentage, 50% from three-point shooting percentage and 100% from free throw percentage. In the NBA Development League last season, Yang played 43 times on behalf of the Wind City Bulls, a subordinate team of Grand Rapids Gold and Bulls, with averaging 34.3 minutes per game, with averaging 21.7 points, 4.5 rebounds, 7.1 assists, 1.9 steals, 0.3 blocks, and 3 turnovers and 1.4 fouls. His shooting percentage was 46.7%, his three-point shooting percentage was 30.2%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 81.9%.

Yang previously represented the Bulls in the NBA Summer League. He played 5 games in the summer league, averaging 20.1 minutes per game, averaging 13.6 points, 1.8 rebounds, 4 assists, and 0.8 steals. He also had 2.4 turnovers and 0.4 fouls. His shooting percentage was 53.3%, three-point shooting percentage was 56.3%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 84.6%. Yang's performance in the summer league is quite highlight. He scored 40 points in a single game, showing his strong scoring ability. He also has certain passing ability and organizational ability. His contribution to the offensive end is amazing. However, even in this case, he did not get a contract from the Bulls, and the Heat signed him first.

Yang is also a player with very good abilities. He performed very outstandingly in the NBA Development League last season and showed his strong dominance. And he is also relatively young, and he has certain potential to explore. I wonder what kind of performance Yang can perform in the next training camp and preseason. Can he stand out in the competition with these players who also hold training camp contracts?
