MANILA, Philippines – San Miguel Beermen’s June Mar Fajardo continues his march towards unprecedented heights after bagging his 7th PBA Best Player of the Conference award. 

Fajardo, considered as the most dominant Filipino player today, won via landside after amassing a total of 1153 points as he topped the statistical race and each of the player, media and league voting. 

He bested Alaska Aces’ Vic Manuel (766 points) and GlobalPort Batang Pier’s Stanley Pringle (545 points) for the award presented by Master Sardines.

The Cebuano stalwart already edged former San Miguel teammate and mentor Danny Ildefonso – who owns 5 – last April for the most number of BPC awards in the league’s 43-year history. TNT KaTropa’s Jayson Castro ranks 3rd with 4 trophies. 

While Fajardo has been a regular BPC winner, it’s the first time he clinched the honor in the Commissioner’s Cup – having won 5 in the Philippine Cup and one in the Governor’s Cup.
