The pay may not be at par with the Japan. Might as well go back to the PBA
iirc PBA pays better than the latin-american leagues

BREAKING NEWS: Thirdy Ravena is finalizing a deal to join BC Dubai, multiple sources just told me.
BC Dubai is a newly-established team that will enter the EuroLeague beginning with the BKT EuroCup this coming September.
The former Ateneo star left the Japan B. League last May after four seasons with San-En NeoPhoenix.
Keep making the proud Thirdy!!!

Dubai money is crazy. Imagine being irrelevant in the FIBA but gets your local team to be in a top-tier league.
For context though, Thirdy did not get recruit by a
European team but an Asian team who will play in an European Tournament. Fans are getting mislead and hype. They think Thirdy is getting recruited in the Europe because his team will play in Euroleague.
There is a difference in getting recognized by a legit european team and an asian team who will play in european tournament.
I do hope he will do better because that will pave the way for scouts to take a look at filipino talents.
They literal payed there way into the eurocup. I wonder how much that cost.
Knowing thirdy he isn’t gonna shy away from a challenge and take a paycut.
Hes getting paid
He is getting paid paid for sure. Now Thirdy's part of BLeague's growth in East Asia and Euroleague's expansion to Dubai.
Then they gotta ball out otherwise they'll get blown tf out possibly with Thirdy at the end of the bench behind legit Adriatic League players because Emiratis know Filipinos will pay anything to watch a fellow Pinoy. If they get relegated right away, I don't see Thirdy staying long. As for the EuroCup, it's a longshot but much higher competition than the EASL/BCL Asia for sure.
*edit
It's got Jayson Castro NBL Singapore Slingers vibes... but we never saw that with the Slingers losing money to travel costs and ended up in the ABL then Castro decided to go apply for the PBA draft instead. I do think this is Thirdy's last stop before going to the PBA. It's just a matter of how long he's gonna last in this league.
The guy just won the Most Outstanding Asian Player award in the B-League. I'm sure he'll have no problem getting a spot in a B-League team if BC Dubai doesn't pan out.
