Abueva still in ‘process’ of getting PBA ban lifted
Calvin Abueva has been suspended by the PBA for more than a year

There is still a process to be followed for the PBA to finally lift its indefinite suspension on embattled Phoenix star Calvin Abueva, which has dragged on for more than a year.

Abueva bared in a talk show that he had already completed the demands set by the PBA – including a series of psychological tests – but league commissioner Willie Marcial said it does not end there.

“I told Calvin that we have a process to follow,” Marcial said in Filipino during the Philippine Sportswriters Association Online Forum.

“The good thing is we already talked about it. He understands me and I understand him.”

Marcial also refused to go into specifics of the “process” for the “protection and good of everyone.”

But Marcial said Abueva, who was punished in June 2019 for clotheslining import Terrence Jones and for making lewd gestures towards Ray Parks’ girlfriend, has made huge gains in his character development.

“For me, Calvin is doing better. Calvin has made improvements.”

Abueva, who manages his own restaurant Dampa Ni The Beast, previously vowed to return with more fire and less antics. – Rappler.com
