The imports of this conference is truly a magnificent group. It is time to rank them again!
#13. Tony Mitchell (#13 Last Ranking) - Tony is just old at this point. I am not sure why Macau decided to keep him when it was the most obvious route for improvement for their team.
#12. Earl Gilmore (#5 Last Ranking) - He is really impressive on the defensive end. Unfortunately, 39% efficiency in the field will not do his team any good.
#11. Mubashar Ali (#4 Last Ranking)- After his 50 points performance wherein fans are actually starting to care for Terrafirma. Ali suddenly look like the worse import in the league.
#10. Marvin Jones (#12 Last Ranking) - Meralco found themselves a reliable producer in Marvin. He is currently averaging 24.4 points, 13.1 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game.
#9. Donovan Smith (New) - He was really impressive in taking advantage of an import-less Phoenix, which ironically his previous team. Let us see how he performs against a complete team first before pushing him higher.
#8. Robert Upshaw (#9 Last Ranking) - I think he is clearly the 2nd most entertaining player to watch this conference due to the blend of his size, skills and athleticism. Unfortunately, the wins are not coming.
#7. James Dickey (#8 Last Ranking)- Coach Charles Tiu is not happy with the decision of Dickey to sit-out their game against Converge. Nevertheless, James is a very fine import. Replacing him will come with risks.
#6. Clint Chapman (#6 Last Ranking) - Chapman has proven to be the right choice for Mangolia. He is currently producing 26.3 points, 11.2 rebounds and 50% FG per game.
#5. Bennie Boatwright (New) - Bennie brings a lot of scoring to San Miguel. He is currently averaging the #1 points per game. But, compared to the 4 at the top, he is not providing enough in the other areas.
#4. Cady Lalanne (#10 Last Ranking) - You may not even know the name of the import of NLEX and that is fine because what is important for NLEX is what he brings to the floor. He is averaging 26.7 points, 15.4 rebounds and 2.2 blocks per game.
#3. Jaylen Johnson (#2 Last Ranking) - The fit of Jaylen to Rain or Shine is very smooth. He is the focal of their offense and he is making sure that he will prove that he deserves it.
#2. Bol Bol (#1 Last Ranking) - I do not have an issue with the argument that Bol Bol is the #1 import this tournament. I cannot put him there though because he is creating a big chemistry issue within TNT which could bite them in the playoffs.
#1. Justin Brownlee (#3 Last Ranking) - On the other hand, Brownlee continue to become the most consistent superstar producer in this decate in the PBA, next to Junemar. 31.6 points, 8.2 rebounds and 4.6 assists per game.
