French guard Thomas Heurtel looks set to remain with Liga Endesa side Laboral Kutxa, it has been reported.

Heurtel, who had impressed many at the recent FIBA World Cup in Spain, where he captured a bronze medal was a target for Anadolu Efes and Fenerbahce.

The 25-year-old though has decided to honour the last year of his current contract with the Vitoria-based club.

“I will remain with Baskonia one more year,” said Heurtel. “I had a tough week because I did not know if I was going to remain here or to leave.”

The tweet that originally broke the story came from Spanish journalist Ekaitz Otxoa.
