It’s never too late for PBA veteran star Calvin Abueva to reunite with his old coach and benefactor, current Pampanga Vice Governor and Converge FiberXers head coach Dennis “Delta” Pineda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Archen Cayabyab, Converge’s representative to the PBA board, confirmed the news to Pinoystep.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Yes, it’s true,” Cayabyab responded via Viber message. “We’re just waiting for the (PBA’s) approval.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As the clock struck before 5 p.m., Tuesday, the league approved the trade, formalizing the transfer of Abueva to the FiberXers’ camp. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Spin.ph’s Reuben Terrado first broke the news, reporting that ‘The Beast’ is headed to the FiberXers in exchange for Rey Suerte, King Caralipio and Mark Omega.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cayabyab is also excited to see Abueva teaming up with talented rookie Juan Gomez de Liano as both players play with so much swagger. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Abueva was among the three players brought by Pineda to San Sebastian along with Ian Sangalang and Ronald Pascua. The fabled Pinatubo Trio led the Stags to a title run more than a decade ago when the squad was guided to the championship by former PBA MVP Ato Agustin. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
