The 25-year-old outside recruit EJ Anosike will take over for the injured Jordan Adams for the team’s five-game quarterfinal against Converge FiberXers on Thursday.
A Nigerian American from Staten Island, New York, Mr. Anosik studied at Cal State Fullerton.
Despite falling short in the NBA draft, he has accumulated extensive professional experience overseas, playing in leagues in countries such as South Korea, Belgium, Canada and China.
Anosic’s official height is 6 ‘5 “, but he needs to be officially measured at the PBA office. Still, he faces no small challenge, as he will be taking over from Adams. Adams had led SAN Miguel to the quarter-finals before being sidelined by a hamstring strain.
No, you are trading money for your own progress, which I think is quite reasonable.”
