The Annual Rookie Draft of PBA is set on Aug. 29 at the Market! Market! Place in Taguig City. The date and place is set, the question now is, who will be the top overall pick?
Air21 has the top three picks and they most likely spend it on big men. From the list of draftees, the 6-foot-7 Rabeh Al-Hussaini is favored by Air21 coach to be his team’s top pick.
“Al-Hussaini is definitely our choice for No.1, but we’re also seriously considering Baclao because he’s a defensive player and sometimes willing to become a role player. He’s also a tough frontliner. His qualities fit our need,” said Guiao in a telephone interview.
Other notable PBA aspirants are NCAA MVP John Wilson, Nonoy Baclao, Ford Arao, Jai Reyes, slam dunk king Elmer Espiritu, Jimbo Aquino, Marvin Hayes, Khazim Mirza, Rey Guevarra and RJ Jazul.
