France’s Guerschon Yabusele wanted NBA teams to know he’s ready after a breakout showing in the Olympics

He earned another chance.

One of the underrated aspects of Olympic basketball is what the tournament can mean for a non-NBA player’s career. It’s an opportunity to go up against the world’s best basketball players on a major stage. And you best believe that NBA teams are paying attention.

With that in mind, France’s Guerschon Yabusele could probably expect some calls in the near future. He made it clear that he’s ready for that chance.

Yabusele was a former first-round pick who only lasted a couple seasons with the Celtics amid limited playing time. Since then, he’s put together a great career overseas, and in Saturday’s gold medal game against Team USA, he absolutely looked the part.

After his 20-point performance against the U.S., Yabusele took to Twitter/X and issued his message to NBA teams. He’s still just 28 years old.

He’s been waiting for a second chance, and he’s ready to go.

Yabusele — currently with Real Madrid — averaged 19.6 points per game in the knockout stage for France, and he stunned the basketball world with his poster dunk on LeBron James.

NBA fans wouldn’t mind seeing Yabusele get another shot in the league either.

This was how Twitter/X reacted
