Juan Gomez de Lia, after playing overseas for four years, believes it is the "right and perfect chance" to enter the PBA.
He is expected to be one of the top picks in this year's PBA Draft.
The 6-foot-tall lefty guard is set to bring his scoring, passing, and international experience to the league.
Gomez de Lia made his professional debut in Japan's B-League in 2022, later playing for BC Wolves in Lithuania and for the Seoul SK Knights in the Korean Basketball League.
He stated that while he had other overseas options, declaring for the PBA was the "best option" for him.
