With their frontline depleted, Rain or Shine turned to Batangas Tanduay for reinforcements.
Kris Porter is making his return to the PBA after signing with the Elasto Painters for the remainder of the ongoing Philippine Cup.
Porter’s arrival provides a much-needed boost to Rain or Shine’s rotation, following the release of veteran Beau Belga to unrestricted free agency due to severe vertigo, and with Luis Villegas still sidelined by injury.
The 6-foot-5 forward last suited up for the Rum Masters, averaging 3.1 points and 2.7 rebounds across nine games, after being let go by Converge prior to the conference.
A former 16th overall pick in the 2018 PBA Draft, Porter has also seen action with NLEX and Phoenix in his career.
Rain or Shine currently holds a 4-3 record, tying them for fifth place in the standings.
