Evan Fournier has lot all hope in New York: 'As long as I'm here, it will be like this'
Evan, first question: how are you? Evan Fournier: [laughs] Not too bad. We joke, but we’re a bit worried about you, since you’re not playing at all… Evan Fournier: As long as I’m here, it will be like this. I’ve known it for a long time. I’m just waiting. That’s it. I’m waiting to see what will happen. Then, I try to focus on what I have to do and we’ll see where it leads me. It’s not easy every day, let’s not lie, but that’s the job. It’s just how it is.

So, now, you’re not expecting to play even a minute with the Knicks? Evan Fournier: No, not at all. But were you given any explanation at all? Why can’t you play? Evan Fournier: No. There are several factors to consider, but I haven’t been given any explanation. Anyway, I don’t need it. It’s clearly not about basketball. I think it’s a decision that was made last year, to want to play the young players, to change direction. They’re sticking to it and that’s it. -via Basket USA / December 29, 2023
Is there anything happening behind the scenes, though? Do you have any information from your agents about what might happen soon? It’s already late December and the trade deadline is coming up quickly, in February… Evan Fournier: It’s the NBA, anything can happen. Everything is possible! But that, I can’t really talk about. Especially since I have no power over it. After that, I obviously want to play. -via Basket USA / December 29, 2023
