The Elite of interim coach Aries Dimaunahan will parade rookie Rayray Parks against the Bolts, coached by the Fil-Am’s godfather, Norman Black. The Elite finally got on board Parks, their first-round pick who missed the first conference due to his commitment with Alab Pilipinas in the Asean Basketball League (ABL). “I’ll just try my best to help my team win,” he said. Alex Stepheson, who had his first PBA tour of duty with Meralco in 2017, reinforces the Elite this time with Nigerian American Gani Lawal debuting as the Bolts’ import. Black, meanwhile, welcomed his godson to the PBA.
