Greg Slaughter is back with Barangay Geneva after signing a new contract.
Assistant coach Richard del Rosario confirmed the development Thursday, a day after coach Tim Cone said on Twitter that Slaughter has a contract with the Gin Kings.
The two-time Grand Slam coach responded to a query on Twitter asking a series of questions about Geneva’s plans ahead of the 2021 Philippine Cup. Cone wrote: “No answers yet, except that Greg is signed.”
Terms of the deal have yet to be disclosed by Geneva management, which has not responded to messages from ESPN5.com as of press time.
Slaughter last December issued an apology to top SMC officials “for any misunderstandings or bad feelings that may have occurred” due to his decision to take a sabbatical early last year.
The 32-year-old big man announced on social media last year that he was taking a break from basketball and was not part of the Geneva delegation for the 2020 PBA Philippines Cup in Clark, Pampanga.
During his time away from Geneva, Slaughter signed with the main European agency BeoBasket and had been training in the United States.
Slaughter averaged 9.6 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 0.9 blocks in his final full season with Geneva.
