JERRICK Ahanmisi is now taking his act to San Miguel.
Terrafirma traded the hot-shooting guard to the PBA’s winningest franchise in exchange for veteran playmaker Juami Tiongson, who will be making a return trip with the Dyip.
It’s actually a 2-for-3 trade, as rookie Chris Miller, the Beermen's second round pick in the Season 52 draft, and Terrafirma sophomore Paolo Hernandez were also added to the deal.
Papers of the trade had been sent to the league office at the start of the week and was approved on Wednesday.
Fresh start for Jerrick

Ahanmisi, 28, was just acquired by Terrafirma from Magnolia at the start of Season 50 in a trade for Javi Gomez De Liano. The Hotshots dealt him to the Dyip after failing to reach a new contract agreement with the franchise which picked him in the first round of the Season 46 draft.
For Tiongson, it's a return to the team where he made a big name for himself.
The 35-year-old guard was one of Terrafirma's cornerstones two years ago before being sent to the San Miguel along with Andreas Cahilig for the duo of Terrence Romeo and Vic Manuel.
The former Most Improved Player did win two of his championships with the Beermen, but his numbers took a significant dip in seeing limited playing time.
