NLEX secured a part of its future after locking guard Xyrus Torres for the next two years.
Xyrus Torres isn't going anywhere.
The NLEX Road Warriors announced the signing of Torres to a two-year rookie deal on Tuesday, October 8.
The former FEU Tamaraw was the no. 30 pick of the Road Warriors in the recent Draft, who is known for his steady shooting while still playing for the Morayta-based squad.
Torres also played for the Gilas Pilipinas Youth Team and suited up for the TNT Triple Giga in the PBA 3x3.
He only appeared in two games for NLEX in the elimination round of the ongoing Governors' Cup and averaged 5.5 points per game.
NLEX is coming off a quarterfinal exit in the season-opening tournament after bowing to defending champion TNT Tropang Giga in four games.
