In a complicated situation in New York, Guerschon Yabusele posted a message on his social networks this Friday, implying that he was going to leave the Knicks.
The situation seems to be on the verge of unblocking for Guerschon Yabusele. The French interior (30 years old) wrote a message on his social networks this Friday, suggesting that he was going to leave the New York Knicks. The NBA transfer deadline is February 5.
“A small setback for a big comeback”
Returning to the NBA to the Philadelphia 76ers last season, following the Paris Olympics where he distinguished himself, Yabusele arrived free in New York last summer. “Whatever happens tomorrow, I am extremely lucky to be in the position I am today,” wrote the captain of the France team. “A little setback for a big comeback, that’s my favorite. I love you all.”
In recent days, the New York Post reported ongoing talks with several teams regarding a Yabusele transfer. Initially, the Frenchman signed for two years, for a contract worth 12 million dollars. He has since appeared 37 times with his team (2.9 points, 2.2 rebounds and 0.5 assists on average).
Knicks coach Mike Brown has used Guerschon Yabusele very little since the start of the season. “I don’t want to lie to you, it’s very difficult, I’m a competitor above all, it’s not a situation I thought I would be in when I arrived here,” admitted the person concerned in mid-December.
