He was named as the Honda-PBA Press Corps Finals MVP after averaging 22 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 3.2 assists in the best-of-seven finals. The Fil-Am guard connected on 31 of his 69 three-point attempts in the series - nine in Game Six alone.
His first Finals MVP came in the 2021 Philippine Cup held inside a semi-bubble in Bacolor, Pampanga at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.
This time, he had to do it in front of a pre-dominantly Ginebra crowd of 13,588 on Friday night.
His final trey of the series proved to be the dagger - a three-pointer from the key by using the glass with 1:15 left in Game Six to give TNT the lead for good.
