F/C • 6’8, 260 lbs; 2nd year, France

UNDERDOG

NBA ROLE: (RAW) SKILLED, POWERFUL 4

 

Guerschon Yabusele: an “undersized” French big looking to earn time in Boston; 6’8 F/C, makes up for lack of height w/ sturdy lower base & deceptive athleticism; likes launching outside Js, needs to knock down straightaways & corner triples before responsibility elsewhere; still discovering niche under Brad Stevens - post defender/scorer?; not super quick off the bounce but can fake Js, drive by his matchup for scores; crafty, though still needs to polish footwork + learn counters around the basket; could struggle to finish thru traffic; any minutes left on Boston front line?
