BRANDON Ganuelas-Rosser is on target to return in the PBA Philippine Cup but that could happen later in the tournament.
TNT team manager Jojo Lastimosa said Ganuelas-Rosser is still in the recovery stage after he sustained an ACL tear during the 2024 PBA Philippine Cup quarterfinals against Rain or Shine last May.

Ten months later and just two months short of the normal full cycle of recovert from an ACL injury, Lastimosa hopes Ganuelas-Rosser’s return could come this May or sometime in the playoffs if, of course, TNT makes it there.
BGR has been seen in games to support his team, with some photos on social media showing him in uniform during practices. But the TNT executive said the 30-year-old is far from returning anytime soon.
The 6-foot-6 Ganuelas-Rosser could bring added ceiling for the now-Tropang 5G once he returns especially with the next conference being an all-Filipino tournament.
In the 2024 Philippine Cup, the No. 1 pick in the Season 47 draft averaged 6.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks for TNT.
The Tropang 5G will be eyeing a grand slam in the coming conference after ruling the Governors’ Cup and the Commissioner’s Cup.
