November 3rd NBA regular season news, the Knicks defeated the Bulls 128-116.

After the game, Knicks coach Mike Brown talked about Yabusele, who only played 5 minutes in the past two games, in an interview: "This is my decision. I may use a 10-man rotation, but more of a 9.5-man rotation. Someone has to play the 0.5-man time. I didn't let him play much, but he tried his best as long as he played. He didn't do anything wrong. But it was my choice not to let him play. He is playing well, and he has to be ready at all times, because his playing time will be more and more. I will find ways to solve this problem, but with a 9.5-man rotation, his playing time will not be particularly large."

So far this season, Yabusele has played 9.3 minutes per game, averaging 1.6 points and 3 rebounds, and shooting 23.1%.
