New players on the front line: The Knicks are the toughest team, and each player understands each other s characteristics

French forward star Guerschon Yabusele is currently actively preparing for the next Men's Basketball European Cup. Recently, he was interviewed by Giorgos Kyriakidis, a reporter from European basketball media BasketNews, in which he also talked about the situation of his new boss, the New York Knicks.

Abusele said: First of all, one thing is clear, the Knicks' teammates have a special connection. When they show up on the court, they have the momentum to beat other teams. Each of them knows each other very well, which is an important factor in their ability to show a cohesion on the court that other teams do not have. They are not only going far in this year's playoffs, but they are also making progress every year, and I think everyone can see this through their performance in the past few seasons. So for me, joining the Knicks was a natural thing because I wanted to be part of this team and I wanted to play for a team like this. In my opinion, the Knicks are the toughest team in the league, and I believe everyone knows this. So it was very special for me to be able to join this team and be a part of it.

In the NBA regular season last season, Yabuselle made a total of 70 appearances, 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. His shooting percentage was 50.1%, three-point shooting percentage was 38%, and free throw shooting percentage was 72.5%. Yabuselle chose to join the Philadelphia 76ers with a basic salary contract last summer, and the facts proved that his choice was very correct. After joining the 76ers, Abussele played a crucial role in the team, and he also played a good effect on the court, especially on the offensive end, Abussele also played his value and was able to exert his strong scoring ability, rich offensive methods, and high ball quotient and game reading ability. This summer, Yabuselle joined the Knicks on a two-year contract with a total of $11.7 million. It can be seen that the Knicks also have high expectations for Yabuselle, and he should also play an important role in the Knicks in the NBA field in the new season. Last season, Yabuselle returned to the familiar NBA arena after years of overseas league training. Next season, I believe he will be more adapted to the pace and style of the NBA. In this case, can he perform at a higher level and become a key figure in the Knicks?
