GINEBRA TROY ROSARIO NABIGYAN NA NG CLEARANCE | GINEBRA TIM CONE SCOUT SA SEMIS

Ginebra Courts Troy Rosario, But Will He Make It in Time for the Semis?

Manila, Philippines – The Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) is buzzing with excitement as the semi-finals of the ongoing conference approach. One of the teams gearing up for a strong playoff run is Barangay Ginebra San Miguel, and they have their sights set on acquiring unrestricted free agent Troy Rosario.

Rosario, who was recently released by Blackwater Elite, has been a target of Ginebra for some time. The Kings expressed interest in acquiring him before the playoffs began, but were unable to do so due to Blackwater’s appeal. Now that Rosario is a free agent, Ginebra is once again keen on bringing him to their squad.

However, there’s a catch: even if Ginebra manages to sign Rosario, he won’t be able to suit up for them in the semi-finals. The PBA has strict rules regarding player acquisitions during the playoffs, and Rosario would likely not meet the eligibility requirements.

While Ginebra’s coaching staff and fans are eager to add Rosario’s talent to their roster, the question remains: is it worth signing him now, even if he can’t contribute to the team’s playoff push? Some argue that it’s a long-term investment, securing Rosario’s services for future seasons. Others believe that it would be more beneficial to focus on players who can immediately help the team in the playoffs.

As Barangay Ginebra awaits their semi-finals opponent, the team is also closely monitoring the performance of San Miguel Beermen in the East Asia Super League. Coach Tim Cone is scouting the Beermen to gain insights into their strengths and weaknesses, preparing his team for a potential showdown.

The PBA is undoubtedly in for an exciting finish, and the Ginebra Kings’ pursuit of Troy Rosario adds an extra layer of intrigue to the proceedings. Whether or not they manage to secure his services remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: the semi-finals are shaping up to be a thrilling spectacle for basketball fans across the Philippines.
