Rain or Shine to showcase 2 imports in Jones Cup stint

The Rain or Shine Elasto Painters are set to bring in Nick Evans as their second import for the William Jones Cup.

Rain or Shine coach Yeng Guiao said in the PSA Forum on Tuesday that they decided to bring a second import to match up with their opponents.

“Pinadala ‘yung lineup of teams and ‘yung mga makakalaban natin, medyo malakas ‘yung competition. So management decided to bring in another import,” Guiao said.

Evans, 35, will provide size and experience for the Elasto Painters. He has played in professional leagues in Canada, Switzerland, Albania, Lebanon, and Colombia. With his arrival, Rain or Shine now has two imports for the Jones Cup, the other being Ange Kouame.

Guiao added that Evans could be their import for the upcoming PBA Commissioner’s Cup if he plays well in the Jones Cup.

“Hopefully itong import na ‘to, kung maayos lalaruin, baka siya na rin ‘yung gamitin namin for the next conference in October,” the multi-titled mentor added.

“Pero, of course, subject to his performance, siguro dito sa Jones Cup, and ‘di rin namin alam kung papasa siya sa height limit kasi listed ‘to na 6’10, 6’9′′ lang ‘yung limit ng next conference natin for PBA imports.” (MJD)
