The New York Knicks are open to trading forward Guerschon Yabusele before the Feb. 5 NBA trade deadline and are expected to "attach something" to help facilitate a trade.

> The loudest league chatter about the Knicks is that they are open to trading Guerschon Yabusele, the team’s biggest free-agency signing last offseason. He signed a two-year contract that will pay him $5.5 million this season and has a $5.7 million player option for next season.
> Yabusele hasn’t found his footing with the Knicks after an OK season with a bad Philadelphia 76ers team last season. The 30-year-old has struggled defensively while also shooting below 31 percent from 3 and less than 40 percent from the field overall and averaging under 10 minutes per game for head coach Mike Brown.
> Given New York’s financial situation, it can’t afford to get nothing out of that salary slot.
> Multiple league executives believe the Knicks would have to attach something to Yabusele in order to have a chance to move him before the deadline. Other than what New York does or doesn’t do with Yabusele, the franchise has long put out feelers about adding another ballhandler and/or frontcourt player, per league sources.
