Carry Over Amateurs
If a new franchise also has an existing franchise from the Philippine Basketball League (PBL), the franchise may be given by the PBA an option of selecting from their PBL team several players to be directly elevated to their PBA team. This was last given to the Welcoat Dragons, who elevated three players from their PBL team.

Famous quotes containing the words carry and/or amateurs:
“I respect not his labors, his farm where everything has its price, who would carry the landscape, who would carry his God, to market, if he could get anything for him; who goes to market for his god as it is; on whose farm nothing grows free, whose fields bear no crops, whose meadows no flowers, whose trees no fruit, but dollars; who loves not the beauty of his fruits, whose fruits are not ripe for him till they are turned to dollars. Give me the poverty that enjoys true wealth.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Only amateurs say that they write for their own amusement. Writing is not an amusing occupation. It is a combination of ditch-digging, mountain-climbing, treadmill and childbirth. Writing may be interesting, absorbing, exhilirating, racking, relieving. But amusing? Never!”
—Edna Ferber (1887–1968)
