Away from the NBA for years, Guerschon Yabusele has progressed significantly since his first stint with the Celtics.
He is the joy of Real Madrid today and there is no doubt that many teams will be interested in him, especially after his Olympic Games.
He was one of the best Blues in this tournament, like his sensational poster on LeBron James .
LeBron humiliated by Guerschon Yabusele
Because shortly before halftime, and while France was not far behind Team USA in terms of the score, Yabusele chose the best moment to ignite the Paris crowd: a monumental poster on LeBron, who could do nothing. The King tried to block access to force a passage, but the referees ruled in favor of the Frenchman with an and-one.
The action had the merit of igniting the public and relaunching the Blues before half-time, especially since Yabusele chained baskets in this final. And clearly, he already plans to keep a souvenir of this very special moment.
Guerschon Yabusele after his poster on LeBron James : “From what I understand, everyone is talking about it a little bit at the moment. I’m still going to put the poster up in my house.”
Yabusele would have preferred to celebrate with the gold medal of course, but the Frenchman can still enjoy this poster that is likely to create a buzz for a while. Questioned again on the subject, Yabusele detailed the action on the King.
Yabusele : “When I see him like that, I tell myself that it’s either I dunk or he counters me. So I don’t have a choice. At that moment, you don’t think. When I saw the contact and I made it anyway, it gave everyone a boost, it really pushed us.”
Disappointed with this silver medal, especially since Team USA was not far away, Guerschon Yabusele has a good memory of this poster on LeBron James. A special moment for the Frenchman, especially since there are not many who can boast of such an exploit .
