Justine Baltazar debuts for Converge FiberXers in PBA

Justine Baltazar made his PBA debut for Converge FiberXers in their match against NorthPort Batang Pier on Thursday.

Despite having recently led the Pampanga Giant Lanterns to back-to-back MPBL championships, Baltazar had little rest before entering the game and scoring a basket early on.

Converge lost the game 108-101 but with Baltazar now part of the roster, they aim to become one of the teams to watch in the Commissioner's Cup.

Baltazar, who was picked by Converge ahead of the match against NorthPort, will complement core players like Justin Arana, Alec Stockton, and import Cheick Diallo.

The team also added Jordan Heading from Terrafirma Dyip and Letran product Paolo Javillonar to bolster their frontcourt depth this season.
