The 26-year-old was previously suspended for disrespectful attitude and unprofessional behavior, sources told BasketNews at the time. A conflict he had with big man Donatas Motiejunas during the match against Olympiacos Piraeus was often singled out as one of the key moments.

Okobo has been averaging 10.2 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 3.2 assists for 9.1 PIR.
