According to previous news, French forward Guerschon Yabusele signed a two-year contract with the New York Knicks, with a total amount of $12 million, and he will also play for the Knicks in the new season. After getting the contract, Yabuselle was interviewed by reporters, and in the interview he also talked about the reasons for joining the Knicks and the offer given to him by his old boss, Philadelphia 76ers.

When talking about the reasons why I chose to join the Knicks, Yabuselle said: I had a fight with them at that time, and then I thought, my God, the cooperation of this team is really great. They are a really good team. There are no thorns in their team, and none of their players have any problems, they are a great team. I looked at them and I thought to myself that going there would probably be a good opportunity. Work hard, tough and challenging every game as a down-and-down dog is my DNA, and the temperament of this team is exactly in line with my style. When talking about the offer offered by the 76ers of the old boss, Yabuselle continued: They almost didn't make serious offers. They did offer prices, but the price they gave was really very, very low, and it felt like they were just casual. I thought to myself, Oh my God, you don’t seem to want to keep me at all, so I can’t continue to play in the team.

In the NBA regular season last season, Yabuselle made a total of 70 appearances in 82 games, averaging 27.1 minutes per game, averaging 11 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.3 blocks, and 1.2 turnovers and 2.3 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 50.1%, a three-point shooting percentage of 38%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 72.5%. Yabussele's performance in last season was very amazing. As the season deepened, as the team's injury situation continued to intensify, Yabussele's playing time continued to improve. He also proved that he had rich scoring and offensive methods and comprehensive scoring ability on the offensive end. He is a very excellent scorer, he also has the ability to pass and support, and his comprehensive performance on the court is very outstanding.

Regrettably, the 76ers really don't have enough space to provide competitive offers for Yabuselle, and there are some more important things to solve. From Yabuselle's own perspective, joining the Knicks is definitely a good choice. The arrival of Yabuselle can improve the Knicks' bench strength, the team's lineup is more complete, and after the strength of the second team is greatly improved, the team's overall competitiveness will also be guaranteed. In the new season, when all teams in the Eastern Conference are in a lot of trouble, the Knicks, whose strength has improved, may become the best among them?
