MANILA, Philippines – Quentin Millora-Brown’s next stop: Japan.

The 6-foot-10 Gilas Pilipinas big man will be embarking on a new journey as an Asian import for the Chiba Jets, the team announced on Friday, January 23.

Millora-Brown will serve as the Jets’ import for the remainder of the 2025-2026 Japan B. League season.

He replaces Chinese big man Michael Ou, who was placed on the injury list.

“Just playing hard-nosed and being excited to be here every day,” Millora-Brown said about what he brings to the team. “I’m super excited to be here, super excited to play in front of you guys soon. Just really excited for the opportunity.”

The 25-year-old joins fellow new import Jeff Gibbs, who replaces injured John Moone as the team dealt with numerous injuries this season.

Millora-Brown rose through the ranks in his lone playing year with the UP, averaging 14.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, and 2.3 assists to lift the Fighting Maroons to the UAAP Season 87 championship.

Before his stint with UP, he played in the NCAA Division 1 with Rice University, Vanderbilt, and The Citadel.

Last year, Millora-Brown was reclassified as a Filipino local with special exemption under FIBA competitions, allowing him to be an Asian import in Japan.

He suited up for Gilas Pilipinas in the first window of the FIBA World Cup 2027 Asian Qualifiers, putting up 7.5 points and 9.5 rebounds in a pair of games against Guam.

Millora-Brown is seen as a significant boost to the Jets’ frontcourt as the team looks to maintain its place among the best teams in the B. League with a 26-6 record.

“I’m super excited to be a part of this amazing program,” Millora-Brown said in a statement. “I’m looking forward to competing with the team in front of all of you and playing with Jets Speed and Jets Pride.” – Rappler.com

Top Solana Treasury Firm Forward Industries Unveils $4 Billion Capital Raise To Buy More SOL ⋆ ZyCrypto

The post Top Solana Treasury Firm Forward Industries Unveils $4 Billion Capital Raise To Buy More SOL ⋆ ZyCrypto appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Advertisement &nbsp &nbsp Forward Industries, the largest publicly traded Solana treasury company, has filed a $4 billion at-the-market (ATM) equity offering program with the U.S. SEC  to raise more capital for additional SOL accumulation. Forward Strategies Doubles Down On Solana Strategy In a Wednesday press release, Forward Industries revealed that the 4 billion ATM equity offering program will allow the company to issue and sell common stock via Cantor Fitzgerald under a sales agreement dated Sept. 16, 2025. Forward said proceeds will go toward “general corporate purposes,” including the pursuit of its Solana balance sheet and purchases of income-generating assets. The sales of the shares are covered by an automatic shelf registration statement filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission that is already effective – meaning the shares will be tradable once they’re sold. An automatic shelf registration allows certain publicly listed companies to raise capital with flexibility swiftly.  Kyle Samani, Forward’s chairman, astutely described the ATM offering as “a flexible and efficient mechanism” to raise and deploy capital for the company’s Solana strategy and bolster its balance sheet.  Advertisement &nbsp Though the maximum amount is listed as $4 billion, the firm indicated that sales may or may not occur depending on existing market conditions. “The ATM Program enhances our ability to continue scaling that position, strengthen our balance sheet, and pursue growth initiatives in alignment with our long-term vision,” Samani said. Forward Industries kicked off its Solana treasury strategy on Sept. 8. The Wednesday S-3 form follows Forward’s $1.65 billion private investment in public equity that closed last week, led by crypto heavyweights like Galaxy Digital, Jump Crypto, and Multicoin Capital. The company started deploying that capital this week, announcing it snatched up 6.8 million SOL for approximately $1.58 billion at an average price of $232…
