Filou Oostende added youngster Mikael Jantunen, the team announced Friday.

Jantunen, 21, is coming off two NCAA seasons with Utah under the guidance of Larry Krystkowiak. He logged 8.9 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.5 assists per game in his sophomore run before opting to turn pro.

The Belgian outlet previously secured the services of Phil Booth. The 25-year-old American guard spent the first two seasons of his pro career in the G League.

Oostende is building up its roster aiming for an extended run in the Basketball Champions League. The team was recently drawn in Group F of the Regular Season alongside SIG Strasbourg, Tofas, and one more team surviving the preceding qualifying rounds.
