Jio Jalalon, Star teammate Marc Pingris, and champion coach Tim Cone of Barangay Ginebra share the limelight when the PBA Press Corps (PBAPC) honors the season’s best in its 24th Annual Awards at the Gloria Maris Restaurant inside the Gateway Mall on Nov. 30.
Jalalon is the consensus choice as Mr. Quality Minutes, while Pingris and Cone are at the forefront of the All-Interview team to be recognized by sportswriters who regularly cover the PBA beat during the formal affair presented by Cignal TV.
The star point guard bested the likes of Kelly Williams (TnT Katropa), Reynel Hugnatan (Meralco), and Sol Mercado (Barangay Ginebra) for the award given to the player who contributed the most coming off the bench.
Meanwhile, Pingris and Cone will be joined in the All-Interview team by Ranidel de Ocampo (Meralco), Castro (TnT Katropa), Beau Belga (Rain or Shine), and LA Tenorio (Barangay Ginebra).
