Despite the interest by various NBA clubs, Jan Vesely opted in the second year of the contract he signed with Fenerbahce last summer and will stay with the EuroLeague reigning champions for at least one more season.
The news were announced by his agent on Twitter.
During this last month, the Czech forward/center has been pondering over some NBA options but was leaning towards remaining in Istanbul with the team he climbed to the top of Europe this season and won the first EuroLeague title of his career. Which was ultimately his final decision.
Vesely finished the previous season averaging 9.6 points and 4.5 rebounds during 24 minutes per game in EuroLeague. 2017/2018 will be his fourth year in the jersey of Fenerbahce and seventh overall in EuroLeague.
