The only names that really stand out to me are Geo Chiu and Juan Gomez de Liaño. I think these young talents have a promising future in the league—assuming they stay healthy and avoid early injuries. I'm eager now to see how Geo Chiu will fare against Junemar Fajardo but one thing is for sure that this kid will somehow replace the Kraken once he retire.

Most of the time, those unknown names once given a chance to play and have decent minutes they start bringing their names into discussions, more on opportunities that the coach and management will provide for those new breeds of stars, hoping to see additional names not just the top 10 prospects.

Let see and hope for new drafted players to shine and create their names while current stars and those who are in almost retiring to be replaced by another sets of good decent players and not to be ship out to overseas leagues.

He’s almost certain to log heavy minutes for Terrafirma, given their lack of quality big men who can physically match up with the frontcourts of powerhouse teams like SMC and MVP. Geo Chiu is officially listed at 6'10, though some reports have him at 6'8. If he’s indeed shorter than June Mar Fajardo, he’ll need to bulk up significantly to hold his ground and slow down the dominant bigs from opposing teams.

Let see if how the new headcoach will handle all those newcomers, they are in a rebuilding process and we don't know if how far they'll going to succeed in terms of competing against those heavy favorites, personally, I'll be closely monitor if what will be the new system that coach Tubid will bring, hoping to see new ideas that will give them competitive stand in each games that they'll going to play.

Like you've said, they will surely lean with their number 1 pick since the team is lacking with big men, though he's still young and for sure there are so many adjustments that he needed to embrace, though I'm expecting to see him being traded once SMC or MVP seen good potentials after seeing him playing.
