“I know a lot of people have been waiting and questions why I haven’t signed with a team,” he said in a TSM press release. “And the answer is that I was waiting on the perfect one for me. I wasn’t going to rush into anything that I would regret months later.

“It means a lot to join an organization that is believing in me and treating me like a family, especially when that org is TSM,” he explained. “I have always been a fan of the organization, and hopefully I am going to have a great future with them.”
