Slaughter took a sabbatical from the PBA ahead of its new season, after apparently failing to sign a contract extension with the Gin Kings. Last month, he announced via social media that he has joined BeoBasket, the same agency that represents Denver's Nikola Jokic."We haven't had much contact with Greg. We had some right before the pandemic started, before we started to close things down.
Cone expects to know more about Slaughter's future if and when the team returns to work. The PBA has been on hold since March due to the global health crisis, and the resumption of team practices was postponed when Metro Manila and neighboring provinces were placed on modified enhanced community quarantine.
"Nobody's talking about anything in terms of trades. Too many things up in the air, like who's gonna pay contracts, financial matters. Things of that sort," said Cone. "And the other thing is, Greg would have to come in and work out a contract with the new team, even if he was traded." In the 2019 PBA Governors' Cup, Slaughter averaged close to 11 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks per game for the Gin Kings.
