Gray to Ginebra
Jeremiah Gray is expected to suit up in the Commissioner's Cup.
JEREMIAH Gray isn’t expected to return to action until mid-season, but Ginebra apparently doesn’t mind.
Terrafirma, meanwhile, looks eager to get rolling.
Two days after making Gray the No. 2 pick in the PBA Draft, the Dyip sent the Fil-Am forward to the Kings for No. 8 pick Javi Gomez de Liano and Brian Enriquez.
Gray is in the US recovering from a knee surgery and the projected return is during the second conference, the Commissioner’s Cup.
“Jeremiah is a talent we’re ready to wait for,” said Cone after the trade was approved by the PBA Commissioner’s Office.
First move
Tyrus Hill is moved to Converge days after being picked by NLEX.
THE season’s first trade was between NLEX and new team Converge.
The Road Warriors are sending Dave Murrell and Tyrus Hill to the FiberXers for a first-round pick next year.
Hill was selected by NLEX at No. 7 in Sunday's draft, while Murrell was taken 20th in last year's draft.
Murrell was lined up for a stint with NLEX’s 3x3 team CAVITEX but never got to play for the Braves and he was later elevated to the Road Warriors regular roster for the season-ending Governors Cup.
