PBA Free-Agency: The Top 10 Available free agents!


Trades were the focus last week in the PBA universe. This week, it seems like free-agency is taking over. Ginebra and TNT already made some moves.

Some teams already released players in the free market.

So, who are the free-agents that your favorite team should target? Here are my top 10.

#10 Jeric Teng
Teng did a mini-breakout comeback last year in the MPBL by averaging 19.6 points, 8.3 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 38% FG per game.

#9 Julian Sargeant
Defense is the biggest selling point of Sargeant. Unfortunately, injuries have derailed is career. I still hope that he can get one more crack on the league and show us if he can be one of the best 3-and-D in the league.

#8 Joseph Eriobu
Players like Eriobu are way much harder to find than guards. Eriobu is an athletic forward, who can do a lot of things on offense.

#7 Yutien Andrada
Another center that teams should consider. Andrada will not offer that much on the offensive end but defensively, he can be something. He is so nimble and quick that he can defend all five positions.

#6 Sol Mercado
I do not understand why no team wants to pay the asking price of Sol. Why did Ginebra sign a young Ayaay when Sol can offer everything that Ayaay will give them, but at a much higher level?

#5 Jerramy King
Easily the player that I am hoping to get one more opportunity to showcase his wares because he is a talented guard. His handle is comparable to a Terrence Romeo and his ability to create good shots is fine. Unfortunately, injuries continue to rig his career.

#4 Kris Rosales
The numbers of Kris Rosales in the PBA bubble is nothing amazing. He averaged 5.5 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game. He was so reliable though. He is capable of manipulating the defense and create good shots.

#3 Rabeh Al-Hussaini
#2 Yousef Taha
The story for these two bigs are basically the same. Height is super important for a team to succeed in the PBA. Both Rabeh and Yousef had shown in the past that they defend the giants of the league and they can also be positive on the offensive end.

#1 Gab Banal
The 2019 MVP of MPBL is no doubt the prize of the free-agency this year. Last year, Gab averaged 13.9 points, 5.9 rebounds, 5.9 assists, 30.4% 3FG and 37.2% FG per game. Gab is a versatile force who can defend, score and create plays for others.

Currently, Alaska is being rumored to be his destination with NLEX trying to catch up.
