MANILA – June Mar Fajardo is cleared to return for the San Miguel Beermen as they aim to reclaim the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) Philippine Cup championship come its Season 46 beginning April 9.
San Miguel Corp. (SMC) sports director Alfrancis Chua said the Cebuano center has been given a go signal by the renowned Dr. George Canlas to return to action.
Fajardo, the reigning six-time PBA MVP awardee, missed the 2020 PBA Philippine Cup in Pampanga due to injury.
With the end of Beermen’s PBA Philippine Cup domination, Barangay Ginebra San Miguel Kings took over the throne following a 4-1 conquest of TNT Tropang Giga in the finals.
Chua didn’t take away anything from the Kings’ coronation, but admitted that things could have been different if Fajardo just played for the Beermen.
“Nothing to take away from Ginebra but iba siguro kung andun si June Mar for San Miguel,” Chua said./PN
