PBA Power Ranking: The top trade asset of Magnolia, Rain or Shine, NLEX

 


For this series, we are looking at each team and let me give you their best trade asset. When I say best trade asset, this is the player or pick that they can give up for something with the highest assurance of getting a positive impact.

Magnolia - Jio Jalalon
With the controversial posts of his wife, I think Jio is now their best trade asset. This is due to the impact of the controversy on the image of the franchise. If they trade him, they will also get the benefit of cleansing their team from a controversy that is not in sync with their image.

And position-wise, Magnolia is more than ready to unload a guard. Jalalon may also be their best trade package to get a very good bigman.

NLEX - Don Trollano
Trollano is in his ripe age. But knowing that NLEX is still in the rebuilding phase, I do not think they need to keep a superb starting role player. Instead, they should just let him go to get something with a much higher potential that will coincide with the prime of Calvin Oftana and their 2021 draftee.

Rain or Shine - Beau Belga
By trading for Bradwyn Guinto and by drafting Santi Santillan, the frontline of Rain or Shine will be fine even if they unload Belga. By unloading Belga, their financial matters will also be better, moving forward. 

Trading one of their best player may also lead them to a much better pick in the upcoming 2021 draft, which can be as deep as 2020.
