MANILA, Philippines – Kiefer Ravena has formally joined the PBA draft, submitting his draft application Tuesday through his agent Marvin Espiritu.

In a Twitter post, the former Ateneo standout also teased a photo of what appears to be his application form to the annual rookie draft.

Ravena, the ace guard of the Philippine team in the recent Southeast Games in Malaysia and also the lead playmaker of Chooks To Go Pilipinas in the succeeding FIBA Asia Champions Cup in China, could go as high as No. 2 – or event No. 1 – in the PBA draft.

In joining the PBA, the 23-year-old prospect has effectively given up on his NBA dream. He had worked out with the Texas Legends as a developmental player in 2016 with hopes of breaking the lineup of the team then gaining the attention of NBA teams.
