GlobalPort Batang Pier, the newest team in the Philippine Basketball Association, will get their baptism of fire right away in the league’s season opening game against the crowd favorite Barangay Ginebra San Miguel Kings.
PBA operations chief Rickie Santos confirmed the news to InterAKTV in a text message.
The Batang Pier are the successors of the Powerade Tigers, whose franchise was acquired by Mikee Romero during the offseason. The team is coming off a controversial tuneup game that saw three of its players – Romel Adducul, Jondan Salvador and Rabeh Al-Hussaini – ejected after getting involved in a melee with Air21 rookie Yousef Taha recently.
For GlobalPort team manager BJ Manalo, playing on opening day against the league’s crowd darling is definitely the best way to welcome their squad.
“What more can you ask for? Playing against crowd favorite Barangay Ginebra, that is truly the warmest welcome we could get,” said Manalo.
“We’re very excited and we can’t wait until opening day.”
