MANILA, Philippines -- After a whirlwind 24 hours, CJ Cansino has made a decision -- and found a new home.
After spending the past five years in España, Cansino has decided to take his talents to the University of the Philippines.
Cansino was hotly recruited by players all over social media, but on Friday, he met with UP head coach Bo Perasol and team manager Atty. Agaton Uvero where he expressed his interest to join the Fighting Maroons. "Noong natanggap ko na, na hindi na ako pwede sa UST, marami po akong kinausap and kinonsulta. Ang naging pakiramdam ko po ay mas bagay talaga ako sa UP, mas comfortable ako sa UP," he added.
"CJ will be a great addition to ensuring the sustainability of the program, especially with possibly just one player left from last season playing for Season 84," said Perasol.
