DAVAO CITY---Two of the four promising basketball players who made the roster of the Dela Salle University Green Archers college basketball team in the UAAP season 84 are set to play for the team in the 2022 PBA D-League Aspirants' Cup, which begins this week.

Former Ateneo de Davao University High School basketball star Francis Escandor and Davaoeno National University High School backup center and Barangay Maa resident Aaron Buensalida are part of the roster of La Salle in the D-League.

The PBA D-League is a basketball tournament organized by the PBA among the colleges and universities in the Philippines.

La Salle is joining the tournament to prepare for the next UAAP season.

Escandor is the most veteran member of La Salle among the four since he has played for the team in the previous UAAP seasons.

For his part, Buensalida accepted the offer to play for La Salle since he loves the school and the chance to play for more significant minutes after his colorful career in the UAAP high school basketball wars for many-times champion NU. (Romeo Braceros, Jr.)
