In the off-season, the Ginebra fans were shaken by the announcement of the retirement of veteran forward Joe Devance and Marc "the spark" Caguiao one-half of the original fast and the furious duo in Ginevra's golden age back in the 2000s.

The star guard is said to be waiting for a better offer from his team, as he wants a larger pay and a short stint. Whilst Nlex Roadwarriors star Kiefer Ravena, after his stint in Japan. Ravena is said to take home $40,000 in his return to Japan next season. Ravena wishes to help his mother's team in competing in the Philippine Cup. Still, some concerns are waving. An agreement both from Ravena and his team must be accepted and it shall be approved by the Commissioner.

Ravena wants a one-conference deal and his team wants at the very least a year for him to play in the country. As Homer Sayson said, this is a no-brainer for him, and try not to risk that hefty payday.
