The New York Knicks signature explains why he chose to play with Karl Anthony Towns with Nicola Jokic.

The New York Knicks and Denver Nuggets are among the top championship contenders for next season.

Both teams have built impressive momentum through playoff runs and strategic free agency moves.

The Knicks reached the Eastern Conference Finals last season, with the Nuggets fighting champion Oklahoma City Thunder in a tough 7-game series.

Their offseason additions will only strengthen their championship aspirations.

Gershon Jabsere found himself at the heart of this championship race as both teams pursued his services.

The French forward ultimately chose New York, but did not seriously consider Denver’s fascinating offer.

Playing with Nikola Djokic presented Yabsle with undeniable seduction. The MVP’s playmaking ability and court vision creates easy scoring opportunities for teammates throughout all games.

“He plays with Jokic, who I think is one of the best big names in the world, and he passes the ball the same way he scores, which is something you can’t ignore.

“Think about the simple points that get a 6 or 7 from his assist because he gets so much attention and makes a really smart pass,” Yabusele explained.

However, Yabusele discovered similar strengths within the Knicks system that ultimately rocked his decision.

Their stars, playing style and competitive culture made the team perfectly matched his basketball philosophy.

“But you’re also looking at New York with people like (Jalen) Brunson, who portrays defenders and is also a great passerby. And there are people like Karl-Anthony Towns, who are very shocking to the game,” he continued.

“So you start to see similar strengths in both teams. We took the time to think about it and make sure we made the right decision. But in the end, we really believe New York is the best choice we could make.”

“W Jokic can be played, but Branson also attracts defender and strong passerby, Kat V Implateful.”

Despite fans’ criticism over his two-year, $12 million contract, Yabusele’s statistics suggest that he can provide great value to the Knicks.

Last season, he averaged 11 points, 5.6 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game, shooting 50.1% from the field and 38% from the 3-point range for the Philadelphia 76ers.

The multipurpose French can play multiple frontcourt positions, stretch the floor with fire and contribute defensively.

His skill set perfectly complements the town of Karl Anthony, while providing reliable depth to New York’s championship pursuit.
