Guerschon Yabusele DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Philadelphia 76ers forward Guerschon Yabusele made a huge impression during the 2024 Olympics, which turned into a contract offer from Daryl Morey and the Sixers' front office. In his first season back in the NBA since 2018-19, Yabusele delivered with averages of 11.0 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2.1 assists, and 1.5 threes per game. He played a solid complementary game to Joel Embiid when he was able to play, and filled a backup role that the team sorely missed. In a press conference, Daryl Morey said that they loved what Yabusele brought to the team and they would like to retain him this offseason.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Guerschon Yabusele (knee) is experiencing some soreness in his right knee and has been ruled out of Friday's contest against the Atlanta Hawks. The big man from France already missed the last two games, and it wouldn't be surprising if the team decided to hold him out of their last game on Sunday as well. Adem Bona should get the starting nod at center again, while Colin Castleton should remain the backup big, even if Alex Reese (Achilles) does play. Bona has played well to end the season, to the tune of 14.8 points, 8.8 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 2.2 blocks, and 1.2 steals per game through five games in April.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Guerschon Yabusele (personal) will not suit up on Monday due to personal reasons. This leaves a pretty big hole in the rotation after he was in the starting five against the Minnesota Timberwolves and saw the court for 37 minutes. Since Andre Drummond (toe) remains sidelined, Collin Castleton should see a sizeable jump in minutes, while Adem Bona will get plenty of opportunities as long as he stays out of foul trouble. Bona would be the better of the two for DFS purposes as shown by his 13.7 points, 8.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists, and 2.3 blocks per game through the month of April.
