I don't know anything about their respective contracts or situations in Europe, but my hunch is that Yabusele is more likely to come over right away.

They both play in smaller leagues, though, which I think is a positive as their buyouts probably aren't crazy high.

We need front court help, and both these guys seem like they bring skills that could help immediately.  What do you all think?  Did Danny address this in any way on his media tour this morning?

Trick question? 2015-2016 was last season

You mean 2016-7? Yabusele is already on record that he doesn't mind being stashed, and Zizic has said that he wants to come over.

Although Zizic apparently doesn't have buyout clause so not sure how that's going to work.

Zizic. He reportedly wants to come over right away. Yabusele already stated he's ok with staying abroad for now.

Thank you.  Then the answer would definitely be "neither."

I fixed it.

 From listening to interviews it sounds like Yabusele may play overseas at first.  Zizic I think will play immediately but who knows right now.  We still have decisions to make on Sully, Zeller and Turner and a lot of that will determine who is here and who isn't.  I hope they are ready sooner rather than later but might not be the case.

We don't want players over 6 7 on the team ......

They can all play for he other 29 teams or stay home.

Our GM is brain dead.

Dang it!!  Of the two, Yabusele is the one I'm much more interested in seeing play right away.
