I wonder how many quality Fil - Foreigners will join the draft.
Does Mike Philips still have playing years after this? He should join the draft he is isn't qualified for japan leagues
Mike Phillips will play his final year with DLSU this coming UAAP 88
Brickman’s age is about 33 thus diminished his stock but he may get drafted in late 1st round or in second round. With a player with his credentials he can still play at least 1-2 years as solid starting PG in PBA before he eventually hang his jersey.
Lane, De Corsi, Fenner and McKinney are all beyond their prime and already above 28 y.o. Realistically I think only 2 of them may end up in PBA next year. DJ Fenner and CJ Lane.
PBA will be entering its 50th year next year and with much fanfare about to happen expect all PBA stakeholders will put all their hands on deck. And prepare in full wing and all out. That will include 2025 draft. So I expect more blue chip players to apply in addition to those you listed above. I believe Kamaka and Remy will send their feelers.
I think one of PBA teams will make a serious bid to persuade Jarod Lucas to enter draft. In short, next year draft would be the most talented cohort in 50 years of league’s existence.
Not sure about the reliability of this article, but it's rumored that Phillips is not yet out of the running for 2025 PBA draft:
He has already confirmed many times that he will play his final year with DLSU. So he will definitely not join the next PBA draft. He's still "only" 22 years old.
what is he inheriting from Japeth? Japeth started to be a tall wing like player who uses his athleticism more than footwork and his greatest asset was that of a weak side defender\shotblocker. he gradually learned to make a jumpshot through the years.
QMB is an in the paint player who can pass and make some jumpers. they are a bit different....
wait, maybe shotblocking?
He’s inheriting the roster spot and minutes? Thats about it
So Javi said that 1GDL might join the draft this year.. he will surely a top 5 pick especially if the draft class is not that loaded... ROS, Meralco, TNT are suits to his style of game..
