Knicks made the steal of the offseason thanks to 76ers' incompetence

The Sixers were the winners of the 2024 Paris Olympics, not just because Joel Embiid won a gold medal with Team USA, but because they signed Guerschon Yabuele. The French forward's summer performance earned him another job in the NBA. In Philly, he proved the Olympics weren't a fluke, quickly becoming beloved by fans. What a shame it is that he's now on the New York Knicks.

There is something special about poaching a good player from a rival, especially someone like Yabusele, who fits perfectly with the Knicks. Frontcourt depth was one of New York's most significant weaknesses last season.
