Yabusele was a reach at #16 in the 2016 draft.

I see very little progress from him however he has never been given an opportunity to be part of the rotation.  You would think that the 16th pick would be able to get you 10 and 5 by now.  Next year Boston has to make a decision on exercising a team option.

Rosalie,

How do we know they won't get rid of him?  He's an expiring contract (next year it is a "club option") and isn't getting paid much ($3.1M). He is, however, the only big besides Theis that has the range to do a puck-and-pop. Kanter and Williams are 100% pnr, unless they've expanded their game. I don't know about Poirier, they say he has midrange abilities, which is something at least.

Yabu can make or break his career this year. Golden opportunity, but I am not holding my breath.

He should have the opportunity to prove himself this year

He has it.

a puck and pop..Is that when he is up top and pokes his butt out and then shoots?

Better than a puck and poop...
