"The Knicks were able to deal Guerschon Yabusele before the NBA's Thursday trade deadline, dealing the forward to the Chicago Bulls for Dalen Terry. Signing a two-year, $12 million deal as a significant free-agent signing before the hiring of Mike Brown, Yabusele's success never materialized in New York. He struggled under the new head coach's system, which halted his significant upswing off a strong performance at the 2024 Summer Olympics with the French national team."
"Instead, in 41 games, he averaged just 2.7 points while shooting 39.3% from the field and 29.4% from 3-point range. A trade was always likely, and the Knicks not having to attach draft-pick compensation to unload him is a win for team president Leon Rose. Terry is a shooting guard who was seldom used in Chicago, averaging just 11.1 minutes per night. He averaged 3.5 points per game on 41.3% 3-point shooting."
