Joe Devance Balik Ginebra! Maglalaro sa Playoffs!

In an unexpected twist, Joe Devance, who announced his retirement from basketball in 2022, is making a comeback with Barangay Ginebra for the upcoming PBA Playoffs. This move comes as Ginebra faces challenges with injuries, particularly Isaac Go’s, and underwhelming performances from Raymond Aguilar. At 42, concerns about Devance’s physical fitness linger, but his experience could prove invaluable as he steps in to replace rookie Paul Garcia.

The playoff matchups are set, with Ginebra poised to face their long-time rival, the Meralco Bolts. This clash is particularly thrilling as it marks a reunion of former teammates Browny and Alin Durham. Meanwhile, Coach Yeng Guiao of Rain or Shine has voiced his dissatisfaction with the playoff format, criticizing the placement of the top teams from both groups in the same bracket, suggesting it merits further review.

As the playoffs approach, fans and analysts alike are eager to see how Devance will impact Ginebra’s chances and whether Coach Yeng’s concerns will resonate with the league’s decision-makers. The excitement is palpable as the stage is set for a dramatic postseason.
