Mikey Williams not in TNT lineup as Jolas still listed as head coach


TNT and Mikey Williams are still in an impasse.

The Tropang Giga have opted not to include the 6-foot-2 guard in their initial roster for the 2023-24 PBA Commissioner’s Cup.

According to multiple sources closely monitoring the situation, Williams, a two-time PBA Finals MVP, opted to re-negotiate a new deal with TNT for the 48th season of the league.

The two sides have yet to have a meeting of the minds.

Though in the lineup, Roger Pogoy will also be out for TNT’s campaign in the import-laden conference due to a heart disease.

Listed as an injury reserve is Poy Erram.

Jojo Lastimosa – who steered the Tropang Giga to the top during the 2023 Governors’ Cup – will still be the head coach of the team. Meanwhile, Chot Reyes will serve as their senior consultant.

Bannering TNT for this conference are Calvin Oftana, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, Jayson Castro, and Kelly Williams.

Completing the locals are Lervin Flores, Paul Varilla, Jaydee Tungcab, Ryan Reyes, Brian Heruela, Kib Montalbo, Matt Ganuelas-Rosser, Jewel Ponferrada, and Henry Galinato.

TNT will begin its campaign against Magnolia on opening day.
