Statements about his future, and not only, he granted to Meso of Lithuania o Jonas Valanciunas.
The Pelicans center emphasized, among other things, that if he returns to Europe, he would like to play in barcelona, while he also spoke about them Sarunas Yasikevicius and Rokas Yokubaitis.
In detail what he said:
“We had some meetings with the team. I think this summer will not be easy for them because they will have to make some decisions. The season didn’t go as planned, so there will definitely be changes.
I’d like to stay with the Pelicans. Of course you’ll be thinking about your team throughout the season and how useful you can be, but when the summer comes around, you should try to take care of your own issues like contract renewals.
I see myself playing for a European team. All my life I have had a fondness for European basketball. That’s why I don’t completely rule out the possibility of something like this happening in the future.
Right now, I prefer a team with Lithuanian connections, such as Barcelona with Saras Jasikevicius and Rokas Jokubaitis. But will I play there one day? That’s hard to say. Supporting a team and playing there are two different things.”
