KIEFER UNANG PINOY ATHLETE SA JORDAN FAMILY

SI KIEFER Kiefer Ravena ang pinakabagong mukha at unang Filipino athlete na napabilang sa Jordan Brand, ayon sa giant American company.

“It’s an honor for me to be part of this basketball family. I’m both thankful and excited to be the first Filipino to be a member of the Jordan Brand. Seeing how MJ played during his time in the NBA, I collected his shoes and wanted to be a part of his camps in the U.S. My first pair of basketball shoes were Jordan 9s,” wika ni Ravena.

Matapos ang impresibong college stint sa Ateneo Blue Eagles sa UAAP, kung saan siya nagwagi ng dalawang titulo at dalawang Most Valuable Player awards, si Ravena ay na-draft bilang second overall pick sa 2017 PBA Draft ng NLEX Road Warriors.

Tinulungan ni Ravena ang Filipinas na magwagi ng limang  gold medals sa Southeast Asian Games mula 2011 hanggang 2019.

Kinatawan din niya ang bansa sa maraming international tournaments tulad ng FIBA Asia Champions Cup 2017, FIBA World Olympic Qualifying Tournament 2019 at ilang FIBA 3×3 tournaments.

“We’re inspired by Manila’s basketball culture and are thrilled to welcome our first Filipino athlete to the Jordan family,” pahayag ni Jordan Brand President Craig Williams.

“Basketball has a powerful influence on youth culture around the globe, and Kiefer can inspire future generations of ballers to make an impact in their hometowns and beyond. We are united by a shared love for the game, and Kiefer – a two-time UAAP MVP and Champion – represents the passion and love for basketball that you see all over the Philippines.”

Sinamahan ni Ravena ang mga sikat mula sa NBA at WNBA na endorsers ng brand gaya nina Zion William-son, Luka Dončić, Jayson Tatum, Satou Sabally, Asia Durr, at Kia Nurse.
