No more limit on lending of PBA players to Gilas, says new commissioner

The dream of having an unlimited PBA player cap for Gilas Pilipinas is finally a reality with the appointment of new commissioner Willie Marcial.

The congenial executive shared that the Board of Governors has  already approved his earlier proposal of taking out the limiting clause between the league and the national team program.


“I told everyone before that we will pitch that proposal to the Board and we weren’t denied,” he shared on Thursday as he addressed the media for the first time as the league’s new chief.

“It was the Board who said that whoever player coach Chot Reyes wanted, he can get them as long as there won’t be any schedule of games.”

Marcial made true on his earlier pronouncements of abolishing the two-per-team clause.
