Luigi Trillo was an interested observer as Calvin Abueva finished a historic elimination round campaign in NCAA Season 88. The San Sebastian star ended up leading the league in scoring, rebounding, and assists, apart from helping the Stags clinch second place after a victory over two-time defending champion San Beda.
Trillo drafted Abueva second overall in last August’s draft, and the coach has no regrets about tabbing the do-it-all forward despite the latter’s delay in joining the Aces because of the commitment to San Sebastian.
“I can honestly say that Calvin is the total package. He was phenomenal. He was a man among boys in that league,” Trillo said.
“I can’t wait to have him on our team. I think he will be a game-changer.”
Trillo believes Abueva can come in and have an immediate impact on the Aces.
“Can Calvin Abueva live up to expectations? I believe he can. It’s now up to him to prove it.”
The Alaska coach added that he expects Abueva’s presence to be felt in all facets of the game.
