Chris Banchero is expected to suit up for Alaska against NorthPort in the resumption of the PBA Governors’ Cup at the Smart Araneta Coliseum despite reports that he will be traded to Magnolia in exchange for two players.

Reports came out late Friday that the Aces agreed to ship Banchero to the Hotshots for Rodney Brondial and Robbie Herndon, a move the league will review once it receives the trade papers as early as today or the resumption of office work tomorrow.

Both teams refrained from commenting on the supposed agreement which will see Banchero leave the Aces – the only team he has played since being taken in the first round of the 2014 Rookie Draft.

For now, Alaska would rather focus on getting a key win over NorthPort in order to keep a fighting chance in the quarterfinal race.

The Aces hold a 2-6 record while the Batang Pier are in eighth spot at 3-4 going into the 4:30 p.m. en
