[4] He was a part of Barako Bull's ragtag veterans Danny Seigle, Mick Pennisi, and Dorian Peña.
With this trade, he reunited with his former coach at Purefoods in Ryan Gregorio, who gave him the task to add veteran presence to the team and be a mentor to younger teammates.

[12] PBA Commissioner Chito Salud made a strong rebuke on Allado's tweet, saying, "these accusations that games are fixed, that we control who goes into the semis/finals/eventual champion are baseless and unfounded it came from someone who has lost his mind and a sore loser".
