Meralco hosts Busan KCC Egis in an East Asia Super League (EASL) clash on Wednesday night, eager to use the match as some form of an advantage for the Bolts heading into the PBA Commissioner’s Cup.
“The one thing that teams suffer from is that they normally get imports the last week before a new conference starts. The EASL has allowed us to take a look at guys who can be imports in the PBA,” head coach Luigi Trillo told the Inquirer on the eve of the homestand that tips off 8:10 p.m. at PhilSports Arena in Pasig City.
Meralco has done just exactly that and will be unveiling on Wednesday night Akil Mitchell, a Panamanian standout who is also set to serve as the Bolts’ import in the next PBA conference which unfurls Nov.
