Kahit Tumador at Pasaway! Ryan Buenafe still drops 20 in UAAP Games

Ryan Buenafe was one of the most talented players to suit up for the Ateneo Blue Eagles, but his habit of heavy drinking and missing practices hindered him to reach his full potential.

On Mike Reyes’ WRU Now? vlog, Buenafe recalled the times where he would make up a lot of ridiculous excuses for him to miss practice, to which the former Ateneo coach Norman Black didn’t buy at all.

“Ang sabi sa akin ni coach Norman, sa dami ng dinadahilan ko sa kanya, limang lolo at limang lola ko na raw ang namatay. Naipon na ng naipon ba,” he said.

“Seryoso kasi sa practice yon. Di ka pwedeng mag-absent ng practice ng walang dahilan. Kung trip mo lang na di mag-ensayo, kailangan may dahilan ka. Eh [sabi ko] patay ang lolo ko, paano tatanggi si coach Norman. Mga patay na talaga, binuhay ko lang. Binuhay ko [tapos] pinatay ko rin sa kwento.”


Still, that did not stop the 2010 UAAP Finals MVP from performing really well during games and he was even a key contributor in four championships during Ateneo’s five-peat run.

Even NLEX guard Kiefer Ravena, who had the chance to team up with Buenafe, testified that he could drop 20 at any given time despite missing practices.


However, Buenafe’s PBA career only lasted in four seasons.
