Alejandro napiling UAAP Player of the Week

ATan - Pang-masa

MANILA, Philippines - Nagkaroon ng pag­ka­kataon si Rodolfo “J-Jay” Alejandro na mai­pakita ang angking kakayahan para manatiling palaban ang nagdedepensang National Uni­versity Bulldogs sa 78th UAAP men’s basketball tournament.

Hindi gaanong napa­pansin dahil nakatutok ang atensyon kina Ge­lo Alolino at Alfred Aro­ga, nagparamdam si Ale­jan­dro nang kuma­na ng career-high na 25 puntos para tulungan ang Bulldogs sa 81-73 panalo laban sa  La Salle Green Archers.

May 17 puntos siya sa huling yugto at sinolo ang pinakawalang 14-3 run para ilayo ang Bulldogs sa 65-58.

“Ang mindset ko la­gi is kung ano ang mai­­tutulong ko sa team, ga­gawin ko,” wi­ka ni Ale­jandro na na­hirang na ACCEL QUANTUM/3XVI-UAAP Press Corps Pla­yer of the Week.

May 8-of-13 shoo­ting si Alejandro at isa lamang ang naisablay sa anim na buslo sa hu­ling yugto.

“Our defense is there but we lack the offensive firepower. Every time he contributes like that, it really makes it easier for us,” pagpuri naman ni NU coach Eric Altamira­no kay Ale­jan­dro.
