Blackwater signs Yousef Taha to one-year contract


Just days after landing Yousef Taha, Blackwater made sure to lock him up.

The Bossing signed the 6-foot-8 Filipino-Palestinian big man to a one-year deal on Monday at Aero Gym in Quezon City.

Taha was with his agent Marvin Espiritu, while Blackwater was represented by team manager Johnson Martinez and assistant Jacob Munez.
