The University of the Philippines (UP) Maroons are facing a significant transition as they aim to defend their UAAP men's basketball title. With the departure of key players like JD Cagulangan, Francis Lopez, and Quentin Millora-Brown, the team is now relying heavily on a guard-heavy lineup led by Harold Alarcon, Gerry Abadiano, and new addition Rey Remogat. The coaching staff sees this as an opportunity to rebuild and adapt, focusing on developing a young frontcourt while managing distractions such as the recruitment of Veejay Pre.
