'''Alex Vincent Crisano''' (born February 26, 1976) is a Filipino-American former professional basketball player.
==First Years==
Crisano was undrafted in [2000](/source/2000_PBA_Draft) but he was signed and directly hired by the [Barangay Ginebra Kings](/source/Barangay_Ginebra_Kings). However, his stay with the Gin Kings was cut at the end of the [2004 PBA Fiesta Conference](/source/2004_PBA_Fiesta_Conference). He also played for the [Talk 'N Text Tropang Texters](/source/Talk_'N_Text_Tropang_Texters) that were known as the Phone Pals.
==Return to Barangay Ginebra==
Before the start of the [2008 PBA Fiesta Conference](/source/2008_PBA_Fiesta_Conference), the management of Ginebra announced that Crisano will return for the team. From there, his game as an energy player and a crowd favorite was seen by the fans. He helped the team beat the [Air21 Express](/source/Barako_Bull_Energy) in the finals 4–3.

At the [2009–10 Philippine Cup](/source/2009-10_PBA_Philippine_Cup), he had a career season averaging 8.9 points 6.2 rebounds and 32 percent from the 3-point line. However, the team did not make the playoffs finishing at the bottom of the standings with a 3–15 record. Also, due to financial problems of the franchise, he was not able to stay with the team for the following conference.
