He opened his campaign with 20 points, eight rebounds, and four assists against Titan Ultra. However, his production declined afterwards, including a two-point performance against Terrafirma.

Franklin returns to Converge after three years.

In his previous stint during the 2023 conference, he averaged 34.0 points, 11.7 rebounds, and 7.6 assists, leading the FiberXers to a 6-5 record and a seventh-place finish in the elimination round before they were eliminated in the quarterfinals.

After his stint with the FiberXers, Franklin played for Adelaide in the NBL-Australia and Guangzhou in the CBA.

Converge will debut Franklin in its next game against TNT on Tuesday at Ninoy Aquino Stadium.
