FIBA has suspended the player's license after a routine anti-doping check. The organisation has also opened a file on the guard but it wasn't caused by a positive test result, the Spanish club announced in a statement.

FIBA will uphold the suspension until the player's file is completed. As a result, Baskonia and Henry have decided to suspend the contract between the two sides until the matter is resolved.

After arriving at the end of October, Henry was one of the main players of the Baskonia roster, averaging 9.9 points, 2.8 rebounds, 6.2 assists, and 1.4 steals for 14 PIR in the EuroLeague.

With 11 wins and 9 losses, the Spanish club currently sits 7th in the EuroLeague standings. The team welcomes the reigning tournament's champions Anadolu Efes Istanbul at home on Friday, who also share the same record as the hosts.
