Ateneo Blue Eagles’ Thirdy Ravena and UCLA-recruit Kobe Paras engaged in a dunkoff and lit up the crowd during Nike Rise Legacy Night on Saturday at House of Rise in Mandaluyong City.
Ravena and Paras are teammates in the Destiny team, which featured the country’s future basketball stars, competing against legends in the Legacy team, bannered by James Yap and four-time MVP Alvin Patrimonio.
During halftime, Ravena and Paras delighted the crowd with their athleticism.
Ravena got it going with a 180 windmill off the bounce while Paras also bounced the ball off the floor before throwing it down in reverse.
The 18-year-old Ravena then pulled off another windmill before Paras closed the show by jumping over teammates Jeron Teng and Nico Salva. RC
