WATCH: Brook Lopez is a fan of Jollibee spaghetti
The Brooklyn Nets center is partial to the popular sweet style pasta, a Filipino favorite

MANILA, Philippines – How many NBA All-Stars are fans of Jollibee? At least one, it turns out.

Brook Lopez, the 7-foot center of the Brooklyn Nets and one-time NBA All-Star, admitted he was a fan of the Filipino fast food chain when he visited Manila for the first time since 2012.

Lopez, who is here promoting his new partnership with insurance company AXA Philippines, is particularly partial to the famous “Jolly Spaghetti”, a sweet style blend preferred by Filipinos.

“Jollibee is my fast food spot. The spaghetti at Jollibee is my favorite, no question. It’s my go-to,” he told a small group of reporters on Monday, May 29 following his press conference at the Hard Rock Cafe in Glorietta.

He says he gets his Jollibee fix in New Jersey, saying Newark but most likely meaning nearby Jersey City, where a Jollibee has been in operation since 2012.

“My strength and conditioning guy, he might not want to hear me say all the time. But I do go a bit,” he added with a sheepish green.

The Nets’ all-time leading scorer also devoured a huge bowl of halo-halo for breakfast Monday morning. The sugar rush notwithstanding, Lopez enjoyed the various toppings. – Rappler.com
