76ers' Guerschon Yabusele: Goes perfect from field Monday
Yabusele produced 15 points (6-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two assists, one rebound and one steal across 17 minutes during Monday's 139-84 preseason win over the NBL Breakers.
The 28-year-old slotted in as the backup center behind Andre Drummond with Joel Embiid (rest) sitting out. In his limited run, Yabusele was able to tie Tyrese Maxey, Jared McCain and Reggie Jackson with a team-high 15 points. While the Breakers are not exactly NBA level competition, Yabusele's efficiency bodes well for his playing time during the regular season. The French forward will likely serve as the club's third-string center, and he is also expected to play minutes at power forward behind Caleb Martin.

Guerschon Yabusele: Finds work in France
Yabusele signed a contract Tuesday with French club ASVEL Basket, John Askounis of Eurohoops.net reports.
After being waived by the Celtics in July, Yabusele elected to head to the Chinese Basketball Association rather than inking a non-guaranteed training camp deal with an NBA team. With the CBA season having been suspended amid the outbreak of the coronavirus in China, the 24-year-old will move on to his home country of France to continue his career. It's unclear if Yabusele intends to explore his options in North America at any point in the near future.

Guerschon Yabusele: Signs in China
Yabusele has signed a contract with Nanjing Tongxi Basketball of China, Sportando.com reports.
Yabusele was waived by the Celtics in July after two unimpressive seasons where he was unable to carve out anything more than an emergency depth role. He should find a lot of playing time with Nanjing Tongxi, however, and it's certainly possible for him to make another run at the NBA down the road.
