Barangay Ginebra San Miguel banks anew on its never-say-die spirit as the Gin Kings aim to bring their game to the next level in the upcoming 38th Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) season.
The Gin Kings, led by head coach Siot Tanquingcen, graced a pre-season press launch that also coincided with the unveiling of their new game jersey yesterday at the Gateway Suites in Cubao, Quezon City.
“The popularity of the Barangay Ginebra San Miguel team was built on the never-say-die spirit. We carry the hopes and dreams of every Ginebra basketball fan on our shoulders and we hope we can count on their support again for the coming games,” said Tanquingcen.
The team includes 2012 PBA Most Valuable Player (MVP) Mark Caguioa, Jayjay Helterbrand, Erik Menk, Rudy Hatfield, Mike Cortez, Allein Maliksi, Kerby Raymundo, Willie Wilson, Billy Mamaril, Dylan Ababou, Rico Maierhofer and Robert Labagala.
Tanquingcen also introduced new recruits LA Tenorio, Chris Ellis, Keith Jensen and Elmer Espiritu who will play key roles in bringing the Ginebra team to championship form.
“We’ve added players who will fit well into our system. We know that team chemistry is a must so we are building on what we had the previous season,” added Tanquingcen.
