MANILA — San Miguel icon Danny Seigle was honored to be a part of the PBA's 50 Greatest Players. 

Seigle and nine others were formally welcomed to the elite list on Friday as the PBA marked its golden annivesary at Solaire Resort North in Quezon City.

"It's a privilege to be with such great company," expressed Seigle, who is an eight-time PBA champion. 

Seigle was elated as he joined the "greatest roster" alongside eight-time MVP and fellow Beermen great June Mar Fajardo.

"Coming in with June Mar Fajardo, who's probably the best player. He's the GOAT," he said.

The former Beermen power forward was also happy to see familiar names in the list, such as Jeff Cariaso, his mentor, and Nelson "The Bull" Asaytono.

After strutting the red carpet, Seigle also reunited with fellow Beermen icon Danny Ildefonso, whom he shared an emphatic hug with.

Ildefonso expressed great satisfaction as Seigle and former teammate Asaytono were "finally" included in the list.

"Finally, nakasama na sila," said Ildefonso. "Talaga namang deserving sila na makasali talaga. Talagang happy ako, maraming salamat sa mga pumili, na talagang ma-push si The Bull, idol, tsaka si brother Danny Seigle."

For Seigle, he was just satisfied to be included in the "greatest roster."

"I don't know about that," Seigle said when asked whether this was a long time coming.

"For me, I totally respect and completely respect the process and the election committee."
