After his first year in the EuroLeague, Jaron Blossomgame is set to continue for at least one more.

According to the official announcement by AS Monaco, the 29-year-old forward is set to stay in the organization for the 2023-24 season after extending the deal.

Last year in the EuroLeague, Blossomgame averaged 5.1 points and 2.7 rebounds for 4.4 PIR as a rotational piece in the lineup.

"I chose to stay at Monaco because I wanted to continue building on what we did last season. Having a year of experience under the same coach and with the same players was one of the main reasons," the player told.

"I would say the season was a success. Although we had a few tough times, we stuck together and fought through adversity. We had high expectations throughout this year and we achieved our main goal. For next season, I would like to build on the success we have had over the past year. We've built something special with a group of great guys. So it's only right to aim for the stars," Blossomgame concluded.

Before coming to Monaco, Blossomgame had a colorful journey from the NBA to Europe where he even played in the Israeli Second Division for a year before becoming an All-EuroCup First Team member in 2022. You can read his full story here.
