The Pampanga Lanterns in the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL) has announced that they made some significant moves to bolster their bid for a third consecutive crown by signing former Meralco Bolts player Alvin Pasaol.
The Bolts have opted not to renew Pasaol’s contract, effectively closing the chapter of his professional stint in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA). The decision paves the way for the former UE Warriors star to continue his basketball career with the Lanterns.
Pasaol rose to national prominence during his collegiate years with the University of the East (UE) Warriors in the UAAP, where he was known for his explosive scoring and physical play. His standout performance eventually led to his selection in the PBA Draft, where he was picked up by the Meralco Bolts.
Though his time in the PBA was brief, Pasaol remains a respected figure in Philippine basketball, admired for his gritty playing style and down-to-earth persona. His physical prowess, combined with a surprisingly deft touch around the rim and an improving outside shot, makes him a difficult matchup for any defender.
Now heading to the MPBL, fans are eager to see Pasaol bring his veteran presence and scoring prowess to the Pampanga squad, as he looks to revive his career and make a strong impact in the regional league.
Pasaol's return to the MPBL, where he previously dominated, signals a crucial opportunity for him to unleash the high potential that many believe he still possesses.
