The Nxled Chameleons continue their major roster shake-up ahead of the 2026 PVL All-Filipino Conference, parting ways with Jaja Maraguinot, Lycha Ebon, Rachel Jorvina, Jaila Atienza, and Maji Mangulabnan.

The wave of exits mirrors similar offseason movement across the league, as teams begin reshaping their rosters for the next PVL season.

Maraguinot started her professional career with Akari Chargers during the club’s PVL debut in 2022 before moving to Nxled, where she spent more than a year as part of the Chameleons’ core rotation.

Ebon was also part of Akari’s original Chargers lineup in the 2022 PVL Reinforced Conference before transferring to Nxled a year later. The former FEU Lady Tamaraw spent the last two seasons with the Chameleons.

Another key departure is Jorvina, who likewise belonged to Akari’s first Chargers squad before becoming one of the original seven players of Nxled when the team was launched for the 2023 Second All-Filipino Conference. 

Mangulabnan and Atienza followed similar paths into the Chameleons' program, both coming over from Foton Tornadoes before joining Nxled in 2023.

Both have now moved on as the Chameleons prepare to enter 2026 with a retooled roster.

Of the five departures, only Atienza has secured a new home so far, joining the Choco Mucho Flying Titans earlier in the offseason.
