Josh Urbiztondo has returned to the PBA, reuniting with GlobalPort on Thursday.

The Batang Pier re-signed the veteran sniper after he spent the past two months with the Singapore Slingers in the ASEAN Basketball League, helping the squad in its runner-up finish this past season.

Urbiztondo averaged 1.5 points on a 30.0-percent shooting from threes in 6.8 minutes with GlobalPort last conference.

This time, the 34-year-old is expected to figure on a bigger role with Terrence Romeo playing with Gilas Pilipinas for the 2017 Seaba Championships in May.
