Fresh from capturing the PBA Philippine Cup title, TNT bolsters its roster with the addition of Gab Banal

TNT added another key piece to its already stacked lineup by signing former Alaska standout Gab Banal.

Banal joins the Tropang Giga ahead of the PBA Governors’ Cup after one conference with the Aces, TNT team manager Gabby Cui confirmed.

Although terms of the deal were not revealed, other reports stated that the 31-year-old forward signed a two-year contract with the Tropang Giga.

Banal found himself back to the PBA after impressing in other leagues as he inked a one-conference deal with Alaska in February.

The former MPBL MVP averaged 8.7 points on a league-leading 45.2% clip from three-point range to go with 3.5 rebounds and 1.2 assists in the Philippine Cup before parting ways with the Aces.

Banal declined to a one-conference extension offered by Alaska.
