Aside from taking home his second straight UAAP Finals Most Valuable Player award, forward Nico Salva has been a staple in Ateneo’s dominance in the past years, playing for the team’s five straight championships.
But Salva, who will graduate from the team this year, said that this season’s title is the most special for him.
“I never imagined to get five championship in five years,” Salva said. “This one is the sweetest.”
Salva averaged 19 points per game in the finals and made his impact in the Blue Eagles’ 83-78 Game One victory last Saturday, exploding for a career-high 30 points. But he was limited to just eight points and six rebounds in their 65-62 Game Two triumph.
With all of his accomplishments, Salva believes that he has a bright future ahead of him. After the UAAP season, he will suit up for the NLEX Road Warriors in the PBA D-League and will join the SMART-Gilas Pilipinas national program’s cadet pool, which will represent the country in the Southeast Asian Games and the Asian Games.
Salva also intends to join the PBA Draft next year.
For now, Salva wants to savor his last title in his collegiate career.
“There’s nothing like leaving the school with a championship,” he said.
