Poor Man's Draymond Green
Glenn "Big Baby" Davis
Jared Sullinger 2.0
No one's sure what to expect of Guerschon Yabusele, but I've got hopes for this 21 year old Frechmen.
For the record, I don't see his game mirroring Draymond's. Physically, they're both undersized PF's who can hit three's -- but Draymond can also defend and create plays a lot better than Yabusele. For the record, I'm also saying that Yabusele is not likely to become an All-Star. What I am saying is I have hopes that Yabusele will be a solid contributor for us, and be among the top 9 players on our team.
The reason I feel this way is because of what Yabusele is able to do with the ball. He has enough skills with his dribble drives to get a clean look at the basket, or draw the foul, that he can be considered a DECENT threat. In comparison, Marcus Smart, in the same exact situation, trying to dribble drive, I would say is below average because he doesn't have a enough skills to get clean looks at the basket, or draw fouls.
Yabusele has some craft, like the eurostep, and the spin move. He can also go left or right. He is also able to absorb contact and hesitate his release.
These are skills that will help him to have some success when he drives. And we know he is willing and able to knock down three's, which will open up opportunities for him to drive.
