PBA: Magnolia gets Jerrick Balanza in trade with Converge as Hotshots make playoff push
Converge's Jerrick Balanza will now don Magnolia’s colors as the team looks for a big boost after a rocky start to the PBA Season 48 Philippine Cup.
The FiberXers shipped Balanza to the franchise in a move that was announced by the league on Thursday, April 11.
Converge, which has yet to come up with a win in six games, will receive the Hotshots' second round pick in next season’s draft.
Good trade since Converge is already done, they are still winless but Magnolia have some struggle so adding another big man in the name of Jerrick Balanza will probably help on their size. Though not so tall but he could use his size to score inside. Honestly, I'm not so familiar with him since his team are not popular but I'm sure he'll improve with Magnolia.
