MANILA – NorthPort finally filled up its lineup for the PBA Philippine Cup by acquiring MJ Ayaay and Chris Javier.

The league announced on Friday that both Ayaay and Javier are heading to the Batang Pier by separate means.

The PBA first approved a trade sending Ayaay to NorthPort from Ginebra.

In exchange, the Batang Pier gave up their Season 49 second-round pick to the Gin Kings.

On the other hand, NorthPort picked up Javier through free agency.

Most Valuable Player candidate Robert Bolick and veteran forward Arwind Santos will be team leaders for the season-opening conference.

Also playing for the Batang Pier are Paolo Taha, Louie Vigil, Renzo Subido, Roi Sumang, Jerrick Balanza, Arth dela Cruz, Jervy Cruz, Troy Rike, Kevin Ferrer, and rookies JM Calma and John Apacible. (PNA)
