"She’s a good player but because of the regulations we created earlier this year and all the teams know about it naman eh. You have to have played from 2021 until 2024. 'Pag part ka ng mga teams, any team ni-lineup ka during those periods, you are considered a veteran player, so you don’t have to go through the draft," Malonzo explained.

"In her case kasi, hindi siya na-lineup eh. I think there was an attempt on Cignal’s part back then, but I’m not sure about that. Since hindi siya na-lineup, she has to go through the draft process, where she needs to submit certain documents," he added.
