Won't play Sunday
Yabusele (quad) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Portland, Stefan Bondy of The New York Post reports.
Analysis
Sunday will mark Yabusele's second straight game on the sidelines, and for now, he should be considered questionable for Wednesday's game in Sacramento. With Yabusele out, Mohamed Diawara could see a marginal uptick in minutes.

Iffy for Sunday
Yabusele (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers.
Analysis
Yabusele is in jeopardy of missing his second straight game due to a right quadriceps contusion. The 30-year-old forward has logged double-digit minutes in just two of his last five appearances, so his absence wouldn't cause any significant waves in the rotation.

Ruled out Friday
Yabusele (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Suns.
Analysis
Yabusele is dealing with a right quadriceps contusion and won't suit up Friday. The 30-year-old forward's next opportunity to play will come against the Trail Blazers on Sunday.

Added to injury report
Yabusele is questionable for Friday's game against the Suns due to a right quadriceps contusion.
Analysis
It's a downgrade for Yabusele, who didn't appear on New York's initial injury report. His potential absence would result in a few extra minutes opening up for Mitchell Robinson as the backup center behind Karl-Anthony Towns.
