Filipino Players in Foreign Leagues

[gilasfan]

TOTAL BS and crab mentality at its highest. @pbaconnect slammed the door on me and my family DAYS BEFORE my daughter was born. I played seven years and publicly made myself available to the NT. Respect the true ethics of the game of basketball and FAIR COMPETITION @pbaconnect.

I am so grateful We Filipinos have these opportunities to play and represent our country in leagues like @B_LEAGUE. It is an honor to join the millions of others working as OFWs

Navarro can't join Samsung: https://tbti.me/s22h2j

He didn't have clearance from the SBP. He tried to appeal, but FIBA denied it.

Are the players need to have binding agreement with the basketball fed, SBP before committing to play for clubs(local or overseas)?

Navarro’s camp did not planned it out properly. He has a contract with the SBP up to March 2023. I guess the next option is to seek a release and finally play for Northport in the PBA. Or stick it out with Gilas pool up to March 2023.

Now the next young guys like Quiambao and Tamayo will be warry of signing long term contracts with SBP if they are planning of playing professionally overseas.

I doubt a full time team will ever happen in the near future. Too much money abroad to give up.

Well he has a live contract. He went to the draft and the agreement is if not playing for Gilas they should play in PBA. SBP is just exercising thier rights and contracts should be honored

You need SBP clearance for that? They're not even PBA players.

Difference with Heading daw is that he was cleared by the US.

Nobody should be embarrassed for exercising a signed contract. But if no contract thats a different case.
