Jamie Malonzo is heading back to Japan after signing with Earthfriends Tokyo Z for the 2026-27 season, the team announced in an Instagram post.

"Earth Friends Tokyo Z would like to inform you that we have reached a basic agreement with Jamie Malonzo for the 2026-2027 season," the club wrote.

Malonzo left Barangay Ginebra San Miguel in 2025 to pursue a professional basketball career abroad and signed with Kyoto Hannaryz last season. However, he was later waived by the team.

He played only five games in the organization before being released, averaging 1.5 points and 1.2 rebounds per game during his stint.

Dwight Ramos has agreed to a basic contract with the Levanga Hokkaido for the 2026-2027 season, the team announced on Instagram.

He averaged 12.2 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 2.7 assists per game during the previous season. 

Ramos has been with the organization since 2022 after his rookie year contract with the Toyama Grouses expired.

Filipino-American NBA player Jordan Clarkson has re-signed with the defending champion New York Knicks on a one-year, $3.9 million contract.

Clarkson averaged 10.8 minutes per game during the Knicks' championship run. His role as a scoring spark off the bench helped ease the workload of the team's starters and provided valuable depth throughout the 2025-2026 NBA season.

His impact and influence played a crucial part in helping New York contend for and ultimately win the championship during the previous season.

The Knicks captured the 2026 NBA title against the San Antonio Spurs, ending a championship drought that lasted nearly half a century.

He also posted on his Instagram account following his extension with the Knicks. 

"still in this dream, NY! run it back!  love ," he wrote. 

John Amores is returning to professional basketball after signing a one-conference contract with the Titan Ultra Giant Risers. 

Titan welcomed him through a Facebook post, announcing his comeback representing the team.

"A NEW CHAPTER STARTS NOW. Welcome back to the PBA, John Amores. Welcome to the Titan Ultra Giant Risers family. Let’s get to work," they wrote. 

Before his professional basketball license was revoked, Amores averaged 5.1 points and 1.6 rebounds per game for the NorthPort Batang Pier during the 2024-2025 PBA season. 

John and his brother were involved in a shooting incident in Laguna in September 2024, which led the suspension from the PBA, along with revoking his license by the Games and Amusements Board (GAB).

Earlier this week, he posted a video of himself at GAB, where he officially retrieved his license, and is now cleared to resume playing in professional leagues. 

Ahead of his PBA comeback, Titan is set to face Terrafirma this Friday.
