“Our club and player Jack Danielle Animam have reached an agreement to collaborate in the 2024-2025 season,” wrote the team’s page.
Animam is coming off a solid performance with Gilas Women in the FIBA Women’s World Cup Pre-Qualifiers in Kigali, Rwanda where she paced the Philippines with averages of 13.0 points, 9.3 rebounds, 2.0 blocks, and 1.7 steals.
She memorably had a double-double of 18 points and 21 rebounds in the Philippines’ narrow loss to world No. 8 Brazil.
Animam, a National University product, will expand her reach on the global hoops stage having played in Australia, China, Serbia, and France.
