CHRISTMAS Day this year was extra special for Barangay Ginebra rookie guard RJ Abarrientos.

Playing in the first Manila Clasico game the 25-year-old freshman guard churned out 20 points, five assists and three steals, highlighting his Best Player of the Game effort with the pass to Scottie Thompson, who went on to seal the win with a corner three-point shot, allowing Ginebra to escape with a 95-92 win against old rival Magnolia on Dec. 25, 2024.
