The New York Knicks Hit A Home Run With This Offseason Move

PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA - JANUARY 15: Guerschon Yabusele #28 of the Philadelphia 76ers talks to ... More Jalen Brunson #11 of the New York Knicks at the Wells Fargo Center on January 15, 2025 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Knicks defeated the 76ers 125-119 in overtime. NOTE TO USER: User expressly acknowledges and agrees that, by downloading and/or using this photograph, user is consenting to the terms and conditions of the Getty Images License Agreement. (Photo by) I know it has been nearly a month since it happened, but I still cannot stop thinking about how great an addition it was for the New York Knicks to sign Guerschon Yabusele. We'll get to the specifics in just a moment. But here is the short of it: he addresses one of their most pressing issues, helps bolster a strategy that worked well for them last postseason, and came to them at an absolute bargain compared to his actual production. Yabusele Gives The Knicks Bench Some Much Needed Depth While it turned out that their bench wasn't as terrible as Tom Thibodeau's Machiavellian treatment of the starters would suggest, they still didn't have much bite once the starters left the floor. Last season, the Knicks ranked dead-last in bench points per game, and based on the chart below, it wasn't even close: Yabusele will step in and immediately become their bullpen's best reliever. According to Estimated Plus-Minus (arguably the best one-number metric on the market because it incorporates tracking data), Yabusele placed in the 84th percentile in the entire league on the offensive side of the ball (per Dunks & Threes). That ranks higher than any non-starter from last year's Knicks team. Heck, that ranks higher than everyone not named Jalen Brunson or Karl-Anthony Towns. Yabusele Lets The Knicks Play More Double Big Lineups One of the biggest leaguewide storylines from last season was the re-emergence of double big lineups. All across the league, teams were having success with two titans in the frontcourt. The Knicks were not immune to this trend, as they posted a net rating of +8.3 in the 165 minutes that Towns and Mitchell Robinson shared the floor (per PBP Stats). For those who aren't hyper familiar with Yabusele's game, he is like the Diet Coke version of Towns. He's a big man who can hit triples (38%), put the ball on the floor (97th percentile true shooting on drives, per and offer some playmaking/passing (52nd percentile Passer Rating). Even a lesser version of this player archetype is incredibly valuable because it allows your team to go double big alongside a traditional center (i.e., Robinson) without sacrificing floor spacing. Yabusele gives the Knicks another key to unlocking their best lineup. Now, the Knicks have more lineup versatility/flexibility in the event that one of Towns/Robinson is injured or gets into foul trouble. Yabusele's Contract Is A Steal For The Knicks Yabusele signed with the Knicks for a little less than the full taxpayer mid-level exception. To be exact, his average annual value (AAV) over the next two years will be 5.6 million dollars (per Spotrac). However, based on my formula for estimating production value, if Yabusele can emulate his numbers from 2024-25, he will be worth roughly 14.1 million dollars in 2025-26. That difference of 8.5 million dollars makes him one of the five best value signings of the offseason thus far (to see the rest of those contracts, be sure to check out this link here). With most of their assets tied up in their formidable starting five, the Knicks faced a nearly impossible mission: trying to improve a bench with limited resources to do so. To be fair, the job still isn't finished (insert Kobe Bryant snippet). The Knicks could use one more two-way wing to complete their ten-man rotation (they would do well to re-sign Landry Shamet or sign Amir Coffey). But if this does end up being it for them, the Knicks did a great job adding a perfect-fitting piece to a team that came two wins away from the NBA Finals.

OKC Thunder Mailbag: Could Ajay Mitchell, Nikola Topic see time in G League next year?

The calendar nears August, which means the NBA is in its driest part of the year. Rosters are mostly set as front offices head into vacation for the next couple of months before training camp starts. The Oklahoma City Thunder will enter the 2025-26 season with the hopes of being repeat NBA champions. They had one of the greatest seasons ever with a 68-14 regular-season record and captured the Larry O'Brien trophy. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Jalen Williams and Chet Holmgren were all signed to new contract extensions this offseason. As the Thunder basically run it back with the same roster, Thunder Wire will conduct regular mailbags to answer questions that fans have. One question being asked is about Nikola Topic and Ajay Mitchell. Both young guards will battle for the backup point guard spot. There's only a finite number of minutes to hand out. Could one, if not both, see time on the G League's OKC Blue next season? The answer is probably — at least for one of them. Mitchell was the rare two-way player who never played in the G League last season. Instead, he got off to a hot start and penciled his way into the rotation. Before the Thunder had a chance to send him down, toe surgery knocked him out for three months of the regular season. By the time Mitchell returned, the G League season was over. While the 23-year-old dominated the 2025 Summer League, there's still a decent chance he suits up for the Blue at least once on an assignment this upcoming year. The regular season is long enough, and Mark Daigneault frequently changes his rotations. Those two variables combined could cause Mitchell to go a couple of weeks without any real run. The best solution to that is short G League stints at home. Just for Mitchell to keep his legs warm. That's a strategy the Thunder have utilized for years. Sharing an arena and team system makes assignments and recalls as seamless as possible. Now Topic, on the other hand, seems prime to be a player who could spend plenty of time on the Blue. The 19-year-old will need time to develop — especially after being out his first year with a torn ACL. There's only so much a practice or shootaround can do for you. Live 5-on-5 reps against opponents is the best way to ensure a player learns and strengthens their weaknesses. The Thunder drafted Topic with the No. 12 pick of the 2024 NBA draft, knowing he'd be a long-term project. Finally being cleared to play, part of that involves time with the Blue. It's a luxury the NBA champion is afforded because of their rich depth and not needing a rookie to contribute for them to succeed. While Mitchell looks ready to contribute right now, Topic looks like he still needs his training wheels. Which is to be expected, considering the four-year age gap between the players. The 19-year-old could benefit from spending time with the Blue and a low-pressure environment where mistakes aren't as loud as they are at the NBA stage. The Thunder are known as one of the NBA's best developmental programs. The Blue has played a large part in that. They've squeezed every drop of juice out of their G League affiliate and have turned it into a true farm system akin to baseball. Topic and Mitchell could be the latest players who could benefit from some time with the Blue this upcoming season. The former more than the latter.

The Mavericks Currently Have 4 Former Lakers Players And 3 Former Coaches

The Mavericks Currently Have 4 Former Lakers Players And 3 Former Coaches originally appeared on Fadeaway World. The Dallas Mavericks have made some significant changes to their roster over the past few months. Dating back to the trade deadline and the acquisition of Anthony Davis and Max Christie from the Los Angeles Lakers, the Mavs have seemingly continued the trend of adding former Lakers personnel to their team. The recent addition of former Lakers head coach Frank Vogel to Jason Kidd's coaching staff was met with favorable views. Additionally, the Mavs also signed a former Lakers skills coach, Phil Handy, to their team. With Handy's addition, the tally for former Lakers on this Dallas team has only increased, creating an interesting atmosphere within the franchise. Among the players on the roster, Anthony Davis, D'Angelo Russell, Max Christie, and Maxwell Lewis form the core of ex-Lakers players. Meanwhile, Jason Kidd, who was an assistant coach under Frank Vogel on the Lakers, has added two of his former colleagues to his staff. The outlook for the Mavericks next season is fascinating, to say the least. Considering the kind of success the majority of the former Lakers' personnel had in the 2020 NBA Bubble, it is safe to say that this camaraderie could be of benefit to Dallas, especially in light of their potential. With Davis leading the side in the expected absence of Kyrie Irving due to injury, the Mavericks will be a competitive side in the West. Should he remain healthy, the big man remains one of the most talented players in the NBA. Coming off a season of averaging 24.7 points, 11.6 rebounds, and 2.2 blocks per game, the 32-year-old will have to embrace the role of being the team's anchor next season. The addition of Russell in free agency has given the team some flexibility on the playmaking front. Last season, the guard notched an average of 12.6 points and 5.1 assists. After being traded from the Purple and Gold, Russell is set to be reunited with his former teammates in Dallas, and the pick-and-roll with him and Davis will be a sight to see for Mavs fans. The development of players such as Max Christie and Maxwell Lewis will also be promising. Although Lewis received limited playing time last season, Christie emerged as a solid rotational player due to his two-way potential. While emerging as a talented wing defender, Christie also showed offensive growth. He averaged 11.2 points and 4.2 rebounds per game on 36.4% shooting from three-point range during his time with the Mavs last season. Apart from the former Lakers' players on the roster, the Mavs also possess incredible talent of their own. With the likes of Klay Thompson, Daniel Gafford, Dereck Lively, and PJ Washington on the side, the Mavericks also boast the presence of a future superstar in Cooper Flagg, their rookie this season. With several solid pieces in place, the Mavs will look to make a rise through the Western Conference story was originally reported by Fadeaway World on Jul 10, 2025, where it first appeared.
