This past summer, the New York Knicks opted to prioritize improving their bench depth by signing several quality talents on the free agency market. So far, only Jordan Clarkson has managed to stand out in a positive manner, while fellow newcomer, Guerschon Yabusele, has underwhelmed during these early stages of his tenure.
His start to the year has been so disappointing, in fact, that Zach Buckley of Bleacher Report recently went as far as to label his addition as the "biggest offseason regret" the Knicks have after one month of action.
While it certainly goes without saying that he's fallen well short of expectations thus far, classifying him as a failure of a signing so prematurely misses the whole point of why he was such a strategic addition to begin with.
