BOL BOL, TNT Tropang 5G
Leading the pack is none other than BOL BOL. The former NBA star has been everything CHOT REYES and the TNT franchise could have hoped for. Averaging a staggering 39 points, 14.7 rebounds, and 4.1 blocks through seven games, BOL BOL is the undisputed anchor of the league’s most feared matchup. His all-around impact makes him the runaway favorite as TNT eyes the championship.
JAYLEN JOHNSON, Rain or Shine Elasto Painters
Hot on the heels of the leader is JAYLEN JOHNSON. He was the driving force behind Rain or Shine’s incredible seven-straight wins to open the conference. Averaging 24.4 points, 14.1 rebounds, and 5.1 assists, the University of Louisville product is proving that winning and individual brilliance go hand in hand.

While his counting stats currently trail the leaders slightly, JUSTIN BROWNLEE’s ability to lead Ginebra (currently 5-2) to deep playoff runs means he could leapfrog the competition if the Kings finish strong.
CADY LALANNE, NLEX Road Warriors
Rounding out the list is CADY LALANNE. After a stint in the EASL, Lalanne has been a godsend for ROBERT BOLICK and the Road Warriors. Shoring up NLEX’s frontcourt, he is averaging 28.1 points and 15.9 rebounds. With NLEX sitting at 6-2 and eyeing a twice-to-beat advantage, CADY LALANNE’S consistency makes him a dark horse that no one should overlook.
