The reigning UAAP Most Valuable Player, who sat out in their 88-79 loss to La Salle three days ago due to a sprained right wrist, returned with his right hand heavily taped but still dominated with 19 points on 7-of-10 shooting, 15 rebounds and five steals.

His last steal against Ethan Galang with only 14 ticks to go sealed the Fighting Maroons’ ninth win in 11 games.
