When the New York Knicks signed Guerschon Yabusele last summer, they figured he would play a key role in their rotation off the bench. Instead, the French forward has averaged only 8.9 minutes in 41 games played this season, averaging 2.7 points and shooting 39% from the field.

Riding a seven-game winning streak, Jalen Brunson and the New York Knicks (32-18) host Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets (33-18) tonight at Madison Square Garden. It’s the second half of a back-to-back for both clubs.
