The PBA will allow Fil-foreign applicants until March 5 to complete necessary requirements in order to be eligible for the annual Rookie Draft.
PBA commissioner Willie Marcial said the decision came after the league’s Board of Governors took into consideration the difficulty of several Fil-foreigners in securing proper documents due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Marcial, however, clarified that only those who beat Wednesday’s deadline are allowed in the extension.
“May mga nabalitaan ako na porket nasa US sila at nakapunta dito dahil nagka-COVID at nag-pasko at pati na rin sa mga sulat galing sa inyo (media) kaya nag-request ako sa mga governors na i-extend hanggang March 5,” said Marcial told reporters through Zoom following Thursday’s board meeting at the PBA Office in Libis.

A RECORD 97 players are taking the next big step in their basketball careers as the deadline for the filing of applications for the upcoming PBA Rookie Draft lapsed on Wednesday afternoon.
La Salle guard Aljun Melecio and Fil-Am forward Taylor Statham were among the buzzer beaters who submitted their documents at the PBA Office in Libis, Quezon City before the end of office hours.
They rounded out the biggest pool of rookie aspirants the league has ever seen, surpassing the 91 that applied for the 2014 draft led by Stanley Pringle.
The numbers hit a new high as the resumption of collegiate leagues is still uncertain due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with a number of seniors deciding to forego their remaining years of eligibility to turn pro.
