The NBA preseason Trail Blazers were defeated by the Warriors 111-118 at home, and Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups mentioned Henson Young in a press conference after the game:

"Jonathan Young was more comfortable tonight than he was before, especially against a team like the Warriors, and he did a great job defending the reads and getting the right sink time and so on. ...... Will you draw up tactics for Jonathan? (Reporter's question) I drew some plays for him, I tried to draw some plays for him after the pause about Hansen's communication: the requirement for the No. 5 position in this league is to be able to vocalize and communicate, for example, when he's on the weak side he can also communicate with his teammates, and he did a good job of that, and I understand that it's a challenge for him, but he did a good job."

Hanson Young had 9 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block against the Warriors today.
