2014 PBA Expansion Draft
The 2014 PBA Expansion Draft is the third expansion draft of the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA). The draft was held on July 18, 2014, so that the newly founded teams Blackwater Elite and the Kia Sorento could acquire players for the 2014–15 season. A "protect 12" scheme was implemented for the draft, meaning that the 10 existing PBA teams can protect up to 12 players in their rosters and will unconditionally release their unprotected players to the expansion pool.〔(No direct hires for three PBA expansion teams, but board relents to 'Protect 12' scheme, additional draft picks ), Karlo Sacamos, spin.ph, April 24, 2014〕〔(PBA expansion teams given more draft rights ), Nelson Beltran, The Philippine Star, April 24, 2014〕 This was the first expansion draft held by the PBA, since Batang Red Bull Energizers entered the league as an expansion team in 2000.〔(Why You Should be Excited for the PBA's Expansion Teams ), Jay P. Mercado, PinoyExchange.com, March 10, 2014〕 The draft will be closed to the public as the final list will be distributed only to the expansion clubs. Players involved will be returned to their original teams if they are not chosen, provided they are unaware of their inclusion in the draft.〔(10 teams meet PBA dispersal draft list deadline ) Snow Badua, Solar Sports Desk, July 11, 2014〕
Blackwater Elite was formed as one of the founding members of the PBA Developmental League in 2011. They are only the D-League team, besides the NLEX Road Warriors to win a championship, which they won in the 2013 PBA D-League Foundation Cup.〔(Blackwater sweeps NLEX for PBA D-League title ), Mark Giongco, Philippine Daily Inquirer, June 11, 2013〕 The team is owned by Dioceldo Sy, through his company, Ever Bilena Cosmetics, Inc. Sy also owned the Blu Detergent team in the Philippine Basketball League, who hired Asi Taulava before turning professional in 1999.〔(New PBA team Blackwater Sports takes a look at Don Allado, Roger Yap in practice ), Reuben Terrado, spin.ph, April 30, 2014〕
The Kia Sorento was formed after the approval of the league's board of governors on their expansion application, together with Blackwater and NLEX. The team is owned by Columbian Autocar Corporation, the local distributor of Kia cars in the Philippines. On June 9, 2014, the team held a press conference, announcing that boxer Manny Pacquiao will coach their team in the 2014–15 season.〔(Kia names Manny Pacquiao head coach of their expansion team ), GMA News Online, June 9, 2014〕 A naming contest was held to determine the team's moniker.〔(Kia puts up contest for PBA team name, 15 finalists to win US trip to watch NBA game ), Joshua Lopez, InterAksyon.com, May 29, 2014〕 On August 24, during the 2014 PBA draft, Columbian Autocar Corporation president Gina Domingo announced that they took the moniker "Sorento", the name of their top-selling sports utility vehicle in the Philippines and United States.〔(Kia finally settles on a moniker for PBA team - and it's neither Kamao nor Pride ), Snow Badua, spin.ph, August 24, 2014〕
The NLEX Road Warriors were supposed to be part of this expansion draft, but they opted to buy the Air21 Express.〔(NLEX opts to buy existing club instead of entering as expansion team ), GMA News Online, June 16, 2014〕 NLEX started as a founding member of the PBA D-League and won six championships, most recently the 2014 Foundation Cup, when they swept Blackwater Elite in their finals series.〔(PBA-bound NLEX sweeps Blackwater in finals to complete perfect campaign in D-League ), Reuben Terrado, spin.ph, June 2, 2014〕
