BRANDON Ganuelas-Rosser has signed a two-year contract with TNT following his impressive showing in the PBA 49th Season Philippine Cup Finals.
TNT team manager Jojo Lastimosa confirmed the deal was signed on Friday night in the presence of Ganuelas-Rosser's wife Marlina Carlos and agent Charlie Dy of Virtual Playground.

BGR played his first conference in the Philippine Cup since returning from an ACL injury that took a year to heal, and the contract extension is proof of how satisfied the team was with his comeback.
"Management is extremely happy about how he came out despite having not played a long time and getting into battle in the playoffs with no time to work himself slowly back," said Lastimosa.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed although Ganuelas-Rosser previously signed a three-year max deal with his former team Blackwater in May 2022 during his rookie season.
Ganuelas-Rosser averaged 12.2 points and 3.0 blocks for TNT during the finals – a rise from the 8.2 points and 0.8 blocks during the elimination round and in his first few games with the Tropang 5G since sustaining the injury.
BGR’s presence is needed next season more so since Poy Erram is expected to be out for an extended period due to an ACL tear he got in the finals against San Miguel.
