PAO Javillonar was fined P20,000 after he was ejected from Titan Ultra’s game against Converge for hitting the head of import Jalen Hudson on Sunday in the PBA 50th Season Governors’ Cup.
Javillonar was summoned by PBA commissioner Willie Marcial on Monday to explain his side before issuing the corresponding penalty.

Javillonar was issued a disqualifying foul at the 8:14 mark of the third quarter of the Giant Risers’ 105-74 loss to the FiberXers.
Hudson attempted a lay-up over Javillonar, with both players falling to the ground before the incident happened.
Succeeding television replays showed Javillonar was the first to get up and issued a hit to the back of the head of Hudson.
Referees deemed the action as unnecessary, resulting in Javillonar being sent off.
The sophomore big man, drafted by Converge in Season 49 before moving to Titan Ultra as part of a December 2025 trade for a Season 51 second-round draft pick, had seven points, three rebounds, and two assists in 21 minutes and 56 seconds of play before being ejected.
