Rain or Shine has been tapped by the PBA to signify the Philippines within the upcoming 2023 William Jones Cup slated from August 12 to twenty in Taipei, Taiwan.
PBA commissioner Willie Marcial stated that the league’s board led by chairman Ricky Vargas has already permitted the Elasto Painters’ participation within the Jones Cup, which is making a comeback after a three-year absence because of the pandemic.
“We are honored not just to represent the PBA, but also the country in the Jones Cup. The high level competition will also help us to better prepare for the upcoming PBA season. We will give it our best shot and hope to bring honor to the country,” ROS board governor and workforce supervisor Atty. Mert Mondragon stated in an announcement.
Rain or Shine can be bolstered by naturalized Filipino large man Ange Kouame as they appear to proceed the nation’s success within the event.
In the Jones Cup, Mighty Sports delivered the nation’s final two titles, first in 2016 and once more in 2019 when the Charles Tiu-mentored squad swept the event with an ideal 8-0 document.
