SAN MIG, RAIN OR SHINE MAY INSIDE TRACK SA NO. 1 DRAFT PICK
Kung ngayon magaganap ang PBA Rookie Draft, posibleng alinman sa San Mig Coffee Mixers at Rain or Shine Elasto Painters ang bubunot na una.
Sa resulta kasi ng bilangan matapos ang first two conferences ng 2013 PBA season, lumalabas na may pinakamataas na puntos na naipon ang GlobalPort Batang Pier, ang orihinal na may ari ng pick na ngayon ay nasa San Mig, at ang Barako Bull Energy Cola, ang owner ng pick ngayon ng ROS.
Parehong nabigo na umusad sa next round ang GlobalPort at Barako Bull kaya’t naging valuable ang kanilang draft picks.
Samantala, posibleng third pick naman ang Barangay Ginebra San Miguel, na nagme-may-ari ng Air21 Express draft rights sa first round.
Hawak naman ng Barako Bull ang 4th hanggang 6th picks, mula sa kanilang previous transactions sa Petron, Meralco at Ginebra, ayon sa pagkakasunod-sunod.
May isa pang pick ang Rain or Shine at San Mig Coffee, bago naman bumunot ang Alaska at GlobalPort.
Sa second round, first to pick ang GlobalPort kasunod ang San Mig, Rain or Shine, Alaska, Air21, Petron, Rain or Shine, Barako Bull, Alaska at Talk n’t Text.
Tiyak na magiging interesting ang 2013 Draft dahil dito inaasahang papasok sina big men Gregory Slaughter, Ian Sangalang, Raymond Almazan, Alex Nuyles and Anthony Mark Bringas.
Blackwater star Justin Chua is also said to be contemplating on joining the Draft, habang si National University Bulldogs star Bobby Ray Parks ay after the current UAAP season pa magde-decide.
Tumatanggap na ang PBA ng application sa Draft, na magaganap sa November 3 sa Robinson’s Place Ermita, Manila.
Age requirement para sa mga homegrown players ay at least 21 years old by November 17, 2013 o graduate ng at least 4-year college course.
Sa mga Fil-foreign, kailangang nakalaro ng dalawang conference sa PBA D-League o di kaya’y naglaro sa national team.
