Now that Oklahoma City star Kevin Durant has been officially named the NBA’s MVP this season, I can now declare boastfully that I once played on the same court as the best player in the world’s best league.

I was at the Araneta Coliseum by 5:30 p.m. last Friday, 30 minutes ahead of the TV panel’s call time for Game 1 of the PBA Fiesta Conference finals.

Declaring he’s now sober and clean, former PBA import Billy Ray Bates may be headed for Manila sooner than he thinks because the shoe brand he endorsed here 20 years ago is relaunching a basketball line in early May and may bring him over as a celebrity endorser.

No matter how he delayed – or put aside – his singing career a few years back to give way to a palatable offer, Mico Aytona is treading the path his idol Gary Valenciano has successfully taken.

Genesis is perhaps the perfect place where Mico could jump-start his musical career.

He just wants to unleash the crooner in him and share his music with others. He knows the road to reaching his dream – and stardom – will never be easy.

One time, his mother was talking to us about her husband, with whom she is estranged, and she was relating how he had carried on this affair with another woman. It was a sad story so the mood was quite somber. All this time, Mico was taking everything in like a sponge.
