Another returnee from last conference is George King, who will be suiting up once more for Blackwater.

Initially not listed as Bossing’s primary import, King was called up in the later part of the elimination round where he couldn’t power the squad to enough wins for a playoff spot.

King even ended Blackwater’s campaign with a 64-point outburst at the expense of Rain or Shine, ending the squad’s mediocre run on a high note.

Ricardo Ratcliffe will also be donning the Magnolia jersey once more.

The other squads, meanwhile, will have new faces to show for.

Meralco will have the services of Akil Mitchell while NLEX and Converge took in big names for the anticipated conference.

The Road Warriors will tap former NBA veteran Ed Davis while the FiberXers will have former Oklahoma Thunder standout Chieck Diallo.

Donovan Smith joins Phoenix while Rain or Shine gets Kenneth Kadji. San Miguel Beer, on the other hand, might tap Quincy Miller as he’s currently the option for the Beermen should they not get back the services of Bennie Boatwright, who’s currently dealing with an injury.
