The Monegasque organization officially announced that internal conflicts and disagreements have been solved, and Okobo has been integrated into the team's preparation for the upcoming EuroLeague game against Real Madrid.

Okobo is expected to play against the league leaders on Friday.

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.
