Kyrylo Fesenko's agent is denying reports that his client left the Ukraine national team on bad terms.

The media reports were "a little misreported" agent Stu Lash told the Deseret News.

Reports indicated that Fesenko left the Ukraine team in the middle of a tournament earlier this month because the center was disgruntled and may have had a disagreement with the team's coach.

"It was positive," Lash said of Fesenko's time with the national team. "I think one thing it gave him was an opportunity to be back home and play and build his confidence up more than anything. (It was) all in all a good experience for him."

Lash claims that the departure was a mutual decision.

"He had a family thing to attend to and the team was playing some younger players, so it was kind of mutually agreed upon," Lash said. "And just with his schedule, wanting to get back here and getting ready for the (NBA) season, it was something we had kind of spoken about ahead of time."
