“PAALAM sa jersey, pero hindi sa puso” – With these heartfelt words, veteran guard LA Tenorio has officially bid farewell to Barangay Ginebra San Miguel, marking the end of an era for the beloved player.
After an illustrious 13-year stint with the Gin Kings, filled with unforgettable moments and seven championship titles, Tenorio is embarking on a new chapter in his basketball career.
Tenorio’s departure from Ginebra is not a retirement, but rather a transition into a leadership role as he steps into the position of head coach for the Magnolia Chicken Timplados Hotshots in Season 50.
This move signifies a significant shift for Tenorio, from being a key player on the court to guiding and mentoring a new generation of basketball stars from the sidelines.
While Ginebra fans will undoubtedly miss seeing Tenorio don the Gin Kings jersey, they can take solace in knowing that his passion for the game and his winning mentality will continue to inspire and shape the future of Philippine basketball.
His legacy as a Ginebra legend will forever be etched in the hearts of fans, and his new coaching role with Magnolia promises an exciting new chapter in his already remarkable career.
