San Miguel Beermen's Chris Banchero want to play for the crowd favorite Barangay Ginebra San Miguel if given a chance.

In an interview Banchero said "I feel blessed to play for any team in the PBA, but since you’re asking me what I’d prefer if I get a chance to--- I think, it’s Ginebra, Ginebra has always been my favorite team... since I started playing pro-basketball here in the Philippines"

"It’s the number one team to be on, they always have the respect of the Philippines. It’s like playing for the national team. And I am not the only who sees it," continued by Banchero who is also the Finals MVP of the recently concluded Asean Basketball League (ABL).

For Banchero to fulfill his dream of playing to the PBA he must play for a PBA D-League team first before he can enter the draft.

 Reportedly eying Banchero's services is the Blackwater Sports team in the PBA D-League.
Chris is required to play at least 2 conferences in the PBA D-League before joining the draft.

Banchero said "Yeah, I am sure to join the PBA. My agent is already working on it. Right now, I am taking a break. Hopefully, next month we will know what lies ahead,"

The earliest Chris Banchero can apply for the draft is on 2014 PBA Draft.
