September 6, 2025

The PBA draft is not only a big leap in the careers of this year's top prospects but also a homecoming of sorts after spending much of their young careers overseas.

- By REY ALD MAGALLO

Juan Gomez de Liano, Geo Chiu, Dalph Panopio and even Jason Brickman have all played and honed their talents first elsewhere before deciding to give the PBA the shot.

"I'm really looking forward to playing in the PBA. I feel like it's the perfect time,” said Gomez De Liano who is not set to join his brother Javi in the PBA.
