MANILA, Philippines — From Diliman to South Korea.
The UP Fighting Maroons ace point guard JD Cagulangan is taking his talents to the Korean Basketball League (KBL) after a grandiose swan song in the UAAP.
Cagulangan, the newly-crowned UAAP Season 87 Finals MVP, will soon play for the Suwon KT Sonicboom in South Korea, a source told The STAR.
It’s a new chapter for the Butuan City pride after an illustrious collegiate run marked by two championships.
He won his first title in Season 84 on his very own game-winning triple at the buzzer in Game 3 as UP snapped a 36-year title drought at the expense of three-peat champion Ateneo.
