The PBA rumor mill is churning thanks to a recent leak on the "NO COOKING SHOW" podcast. Host Snow Badua, known for his PBA rumors and PBA predictions, tossed a potential wrench into the Deschon Winston trade talks. According to Badua, Converge is reportedly impressed with Winston's showing in practice, potentially changing their perspective on his trade value.
This is a noteworthy development considering Winston, a solid contributor last season (9.8 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.5 assists), was garnering interest from several teams. However, Converge seems to be envisioning a Chris Newsome-like role for Winston, a do-it-all wing with defensive hustle and a decent outside shot. If Coach Abarrientos can unlock this potential, Winston could become a cornerstone for the FiberXers.
The plot thickens further with whispers of Converge being "conservative" with Jeo Ambohot, another rumored trade target. This potential shift towards prioritizing size could elevate Winston's value even more within the Converge system.
The "NO COOKING SHOW" leak, if true, triggers a domino effect. With fewer suitors for Winston, Converge might receive a less enticing trade package. This newfound leverage could allow them to retain Ambohot or pursue other targets.
So, is the book closed on a Winston trade? Not necessarily. The PBA offseason is a fluid situation, and Converge's stance could change. One thing's for certain: Deschon Winston's development is a storyline to watch. Will he blossom into a homegrown star for Converge, or will the allure of a bigger trade package still lead him elsewhere? The PBA offseason promises more twists and turns, and Winston's future remains a fascinating question mark.
