Guerschon Yabusele's NBA career down to the wire - last night gave it a boost

I wrote prior to this season that this is make-or-break time for Guerschon Yabusele. His weight soared to around 300 pounds towards the end of last season, and that can't happen again. Yabu is a somewhat-rare case of an athlete that needs to lose both body fat and muscle to be a legitimate NBA player. But he showed some flashes in 16 minutes versus Marc Gasol and the Grizzlies.

Just finished re-watching Yabusele’s 2nd half minutes. His combination of speed/awareness on D for plays like this were very impressive.
