Greg Slaughter has broken his prolonged silence

Greg Slaughter has broken his prolonged silence by taking to Instagram, effectively saying that not being able to play the latter part of the PBA Governors’ Cup was because he “never heard” from NorthPort when his contract expired at the end of January.

Matunog ang bulong-bulungan na gusto na daw bitawan ng Northport itong si Greg Slaughter sa mga pinapakitang galawan ng koponan na ito na siya din naman ginawa noon kay Sol Mercado.

Ayon sa koponan ng Northport, humihingi daw ng halagang Php 420,000 na sahod itong si Greg na maituturing na pinakamataas na sahod ng isang manlalaro sa PBA – “He wants the highest salary in the PBA,” said Tan, hinting Slaughter’s asking price was way over the P420,000 monthly limit for a player’s salary in the league.

Sinabi din ng Northport na hindi totoong hindi nila kinakausap si Greg at katunayan ay pinadalhan pa nila ito ng “offer” sheet via courier.

Ngunit may sagot si Greg sa mga binitawang at pinalalabas na mga balita ng koponan ng Northport:

“For everyone asking me about the rumors surrounding my status with the PBA, let me make things clear:
I expired at the end of January and talked to our team manager about extending. After our meeting he said he would get back to me.
I never heard back then my contract expired.
I cannot choose where I want to play in the PBA and I have volunteered my services to the National Team multiple times this year with no acceptance. My rights are held by Northport who has ceased communication with me about staying in the PBA. This is why I was not able to finish the conference with Northport.
It is similar to when I expired with Ginebra and was given no offer until weeks after I expired thus retaining my rights.
I am continuously learning, training, and getting better everyday, preparing for wherever I play next!”

Sino nga ba ang nagsasabi ng totoo sa kanila, maugong kasi ang bulong-bulungan na hindi na gusto ng Northport ang serbisyo ni Greg Slaughter. Pero kung ito ang dahilan, dapat nilang sabihin ng diretso kay Greg upang maiwasan ang hindi pagkakaunawaan.
