Yabusele to Knicks: 2-Year, $12M Deal

We expected it to the San Antonio Spurs in recent days to form a pretty tricolor duo in the racket of the Texan club with Victor Wembanyama… The interior Guerschon Yabusele finally committed for the next two seasons with Knicks de New York according to ESPN.

After a successful NBA comeback at the Sixers of Philadelphia this season (11 points to 50 % success in the shoots, 5.6 rebounds and 2.1 assists), the silver medal at the Paris Olympics last year decided to stay in the conference is by opting for the prestigious Knicks. It will receive $ 12 million (10.19 million euros) over two years, the “Taxpayer Mid-Level Exception” of the club, the second year being a “Player option”.

The recent finalist of the East Conference (eliminated by the Pacers of Indiana) arises as one of the favorites for the next season. With a very high-level five basis with Jalen Brunson, Karl-Anthony Towns, Og ​​Anunoby, Mikal Bridges, Josh Hart, the New York franchise reinforces its rotation with the French interior of 29 years old in addition to Mitchell Robinson, Miles McBride and the rear Shor-Clarkson shootor also arrived this Tuesday after being cut by Jazz from Utah. It now only remains to find a coach. Mike Brown (ex-cook and Lakers) is the favorite.
