Chima Moneke grew tired of rumors about his future in Baskonia and decided to express his feelings and clear the air through social media.
The Nigerian power forward wanted to assure everyone he was staying in Vitoria.
“I don’t know who is making up all these rumors, but they’re getting tiring. I’m a Baskonia player, and I’m excited for this season,” Moneke wrote, shutting down rumors about him leaving.
Baskonia brought coach Pablo Laso to the bench and added new players like Kamar Baldwin, Timothé Luwawu-Cabarrot, and Donta Hall, who officially joined on a two-year deal.
Moneke believes something good is cooking at Fernando Buesa Arena.
“I spoke to Coach Laso yesterday, and I think we have a chance to do something special this season,” he added in the tweet.
I genuinely don’t know who is making up all these rumors but they’re getting tiring. I’m a Baskonia player and I’m really excited for this season. I spoke to Coach Laso yesterday and I think we have a chance to do something special this season 🤞🏾
