6'2(?) Tiff Reyes and 6'1 Alyssia Palma in the pipeline.
P.S: The heights are quite exaggerated. Animam is only 6'2, Onoh 6'3, Panganiban 5'4, Fajardo 5'3. Abong looks a few inches smaller than Ramos, probably 5'9.

Sportiva în vârstă de 25 de ani evoluează pe postul 4. Animam reprezintă naționala statului Filipine, fiind cea mai tânără jucătoare filipineză la Campionatul FIBA Asia Feminin 2015 la vârsta de 16 ani. Ea a jucat pentru țara ei în alte competiții internaționale de baschet, cum ar fi Campionatul SEABA din 2016 și Jocurile din Asia de Sud-Est din 2019. La Jocurile din Asia de Sud-Est din 2019, Animam a fost de două ori medaliată cu aur, ajutând la câștigarea trofeului și a titlului feminin 3x3 pentru Filipine. Animam face, de asemenea, parte din echipa națională 3x3 care a concurat pentru Filipine la Cupa Mondială FIBA 3x3 2018 și la Cupa Asiei FIBA 3x3 2019. În 2024 a participat în calificările pentru Campionatul Mondial din 2026, iar cea mai bună prestație a avut-o în duelul cu Brazilia. Atunci, noua jucătoare a Aradului a strâns 18 puncte și 21 de recuperări în cele 32 de minute petrecute pe parchet. Ultimul sezon inter-cluburi l-a petrecut în Australia pentru formația Ringwood. De-a lungul timpului a mai jucat pentru echipe din China, Franța și Serbia. Bun venit la Arad, Jack Danielle!".

I heard Coach Pat still looking for Vanessa De Jesus to play for next year's FIBA womens Asia cup.. if Favour Onoh's naturalization is not yet completed (maybe it not because of election season next year, politicians are busy that time, same goes to Boatwright), She is obvious choice... But if Onoh's naturalization will be completed before the tournament, who would rather to choose as our naturalized player for Asia cup next year? A talented guard who can impact our chances or a big man that we are badly needed to help Animam inside? Also the choices will be determine what will Naomi Panganiban's development will be... If she improve her game, especially on her decision making then we all know who is our pick here of NP slot... But I hope that 1 of Onoh or VDJ will be classified as local in the future, so that both will be in our line up... We will be better if we can have them both... Although in 2026 Asian games, since the eligibility rules there are relax compare to FIBA, we will see our probably best womens basketball line up ever.. since the competition will be held in summer and our American based players are available.. we will see both Onoh and VDJ alongside Animam, Bernardino, Panganiban, etc... that might have our best chance to win a medal there at Asian level....

Opening weekend of the top collegiate league and we have about less than 10% watching live. There's still 5'8 centers, raw overall play and no regular person will be able to name 10 players. This is why a pro/semipro won't work.
Grassroots has to develop first.

Grassroots will be wasted if there is no professional leagues or even a semi pro for womens basketball.. why not emulate men's volleyball.. Just like womens basketball, men's volleyball is not watchable too but they have a semi pro league, having a league is also part of grassroots to continue the development of our local players after college careers.. and there is already development, before there is no glaring interest at all in womens basketball, now it's slowly increasing.. before even tv telecast is not to be found but now the interest is there... They just need a "Allysa Valdez" type of personality who will popularize the sport... Just like also Caitlin Clark of WNBA... Maybe if Tifanny Reyes will decide to play here in college then she might be the one who will likely take interest on womens basketball in another level...
The men's semi-pro volleyball league proves nothing. It loses money for the team owners. It's not generating fan interest, it will be hard to find a person able to name even one player. As for development, the good players will have to play with mediocre players which is detrimental. It's like when playing in the ABA was like playing against plumbers.
The only ones that may benefit are mediocre players. Our few and rare elite players play in Japan, Korea, Thailand like Espejos. We don't want them coming back and playing semi-pro. As a matter of fact we want them to aim for those other leagues.
Baseball and football made the same mistakes...you can't have pro leagues without a local pipeline of quality players and a sustainable growing fan base.
By the way, did you even watch any of the opening UAAP womens games? Have you even watched any game of that semi-pro volleyball league? You're such an avid supporter and if you haven't even watched, what more normal people.

For many girls, playing pro team sports means foregoing motherhood or postponing it really late. Sacrificing that just to play in some unpopular semi-pro league is not the answer.

Prime example is women's volleyball, back in the days, womens volleyball is not that popular here... Yes, it was played by people but not as career choice, but the federation keep pushing and promote the sport, not until 2010s when the sport of volleyball is gaining popularity especially the arrival of Allysa Valdez.. She makes volleyball as female sport in the country and until now it keeps growing and rivaling basketball as the top sport in the country... All basketball federation needs is a guy who can popularize the sport just what Valdez did to volleyball.. I smell women's basketball will be as popular as volleyball in next 5-10 years, since we have already pipeline of players from youth program.. and some of them are charismatic too, since the new generation of fans today are not old school minded as before, back in the days, many telling if a girl playing basketball, sinasabihan na "TIBO/TOMBOY".. that was changed today.. today's society accepted men can play volleyball na di sinasabihan na "BAKLA" or women will play basketball na di sinasabihan na "TOMBOY"... Plus if our national team for women will achieve more positive results, maybe a semis appearance for FIBA Asia cup and qualifying for FIBA World cup for women in 2026.. I'm sure the popularity of womens basketball will skyrocket...
