With his father and mother in the sidelines watching him play live for the first time this year, Jiovani Jalalon dished out MVP-type performances in leading Arellano University back to the Final Four with two important wins this week to earn the Accel Quantum/3XVI-NCAA Press Corps Player of the Week honor.
Jalalon scored 33 points including 15 in the fourth leading Arellano to outlast Lyceum, 78-75, last September 6 and then had a near triple-double game in a duel against fellow Cagayan de Oro native Rey Nambatac of Letran, helping the Chiefs to a 83-74 win over the defending champs last September 9 with 22 points, 14 rebounds and eight assists.
