CALVIN Oftana reiterated his commitment to TNT amid interest from ballclubs in South Korea.
The Tropang 5G star said interest from KBL teams is the farthest in his mind as his focus is in their team's campaign and quest for championships in the PBA.
“I respect my contract. I respect my team. Kailangan ko i-honor yun as a professional player,” said Oftana.

Oftana's agent PJ Pilares confirmed that Korea teams are “very aggressive” in trying to lure his player. Oftana's contract with TNT, however, runs until December 2027.
The concurrent Gilas Pilipinas player said that he is also glad that there is interest from other teams.
“Happy lang ako na may mga ganung pangyayari sa buhay ko. As of now, focused ako sa conference na ito at sa all throughout ng contract ko,” said Oftana.
Oftana said he is not totally closing the door on that possibility to play overseas since anything can happen from now until the end of his existing contract.
But Oftana made it clear he feels right at home with TNT.
“Hindi natin alam, di ba? Kasi hindi natin alam yung panahon. As of now, focus ako sa Talk ‘’N Text kasi napamahal na ako dito. Sabi ko nga kay Boss PJ, siya na bahala sa kung anong meron sa labas. Pero internally, dito ako sa Talk ‘N Text,” said Oftana.
