He leads the crop of unheralded guards who are all looking to break through in the May 15 proceedings.
Also entering the draft is Jaybee Mantilla, a former Cesafi MVP from University of San Jose-Recoletos who played one year for University of the Philippines before taking his act to Cebu Casino Ethyl Alcohol in the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL) and for the Cagayan de Oro Higalas in the Pilipinas Super League (PSL).
Levi dela Cruz, who played for University of Santo Tomas and Arellano before suiting up for the Roxas Vanguards in the PSL, is also joining the fray.
Meanwhile, Letran gunner Allen Mina is also looking to join his fellow Knights in the pro league.
The sweet-shooting gunner has been averaging 6.2 points on 28-percent clip from deep, on top of 1.8 rebounds in 16 minutes of play for the Knights this NCAA Season 97.
Forwards Daryl Pascual and John Apacible are also hoping that their names will be called in the annual rookie selection proceedings.
Pascual is a 6-foot-6 forward who previously played for La Salle and Letran who spent the past year playing for Marikina Shoe City in the MPBL, Pampanga Delta in the NBL, and Basilan-BRT in the PSL.
Apacible, meanwhile, is a 6-foot-4 banger who had stops in Ateneo, Lyceum, and University of the East and last played for the Pagadian Explorers in the PSL.
Also on the list are Imus Bandera's Jerick Nacpil, Pagadian's John Gonzaga, and Cagayan de Oro's Fletcher Galvez and John Reel Saycon.
