The PBA Commissioner’s Cup has reached its final stretch, with the playoff picture becoming clearer after a dramatic penultimate day of the eliminations. While team standings are getting sorted out, another exciting race is unfolding—one that feels refreshingly new. For the first time in a while, the Best Player of the Conference (BPC) award is set to crown a first-time winner.
Tolentino vs. Bolick: A Battle for BPC Supremacy
With perennial BPC winner June Mar Fajardo out of the running due to San Miguel’s early exit, the door has swung wide open for fresh faces to take center stage. Leading the charge are Arvin Tolentino and Robert Bolick, two players who have been putting up monster numbers for their respective teams.
In the last statistical tally, Fajardo, Tolentino, and Bolick occupied the top three spots. But with San Miguel now eliminated, Tolentino and Bolick are poised to overtake the six-time MVP and battle for their first-ever BPC award.
At This Point, Tolentino is Clearly Ahead
Both Arvin Tolentino and Robert Bolick have been playing out of their minds, proving that they are ready for the spotlight. Bolick has been the heartbeat of NLEX, orchestrating the offense and carrying his team when needed. However, at this point, Tolentino is clearly in the lead.
The high-scoring NorthPort forward has been an unstoppable force, showing elite versatility as a scorer and rebounder while also being a key factor in his team’s playoff push. His ability to take over games has put him in the driver’s seat for the award.
A New Era for the BPC Award?
For years, the BPC race has been dominated by the same elite names, with Fajardo, Scottie Thompson, and other established superstars usually in contention. But this conference is different—it’s a changing of the guard.
It’s refreshing to see new faces take center stage, proving that the league’s next wave of stars is ready to shine. While the final outcome will depend on how deep NorthPort and NLEX go in the playoffs, one thing is certain: the PBA will have a new BPC, and that’s an exciting shift for the league.
