This is Acuna’s return to the Purefoods franchise, which last saw action for the B-Meg Llamados brand, which won the 2012 Commissioner’s Cup and the 2013 Governors Cup.

The 35-year-old winger then played in the ASEAN Basketball League (ABL), where he won a championship with the San Miguel Beer team.

In 2014, he rejoined the Purefoods franchise, which carried the San Mig Coffee brand, and was a member of the championship unit for two conferences.

The University of the East product also had stints in the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL) and VisMin Cup, respectively.

Acuna will be joined by Pao Javelona, Jun Bonsubre, Jed Mendoza, and Joseph Eriobu in the Titan’s 3×3 roster.

Magnolia deputy coach Tony Boy Espinosa will be calling the shots for the team together with Paul Sorongon.
