Excerpt from ‘Curious on how much Filipino imports in Korea league make?’ article by Randolph B. Leongson:
FILIPINOS have certainly taken Korea by storm with the advent of the Asian Players Quota IN the Korean Basketball League (KBL).
And so far, these imports haven't been shy in showcasing their skills and have proven that clubs did the right thing in securing their services.
With such significant impact to the team's campaigns, it's no surprise that these players are also paid handsomely.
Korean website Jumpball disclosed the salaries of the Pinoy talents in the Land of Morning Calm as the league has certainly enjoyed the different spice brought upon by our imports.
Among them, Rhenz Abando signed the most lucrative deal with him signing with Anyang KGC for a cool KRW 237 million (PHP 9.75 million) in his debut season.
The report even indicated that Anyang risked exceeding the salary cap set at KRW 2.6 billion (PHP 106.97 million) just to get their hands on the former NCAA MVP out of Letran.
Not far behind was Justin Gutang who inked a KRW 213 million (PHP 8.76 million) deal with Changwon LG Sakers. He has yet to make his debut this season.
Fil-Am guard Ethan Alvano has rewarded Wonju DB Promy with his superb playmaking, earning every cent from his KRW 200 million (PHP 8.22 million) deal.
