Alaska forward Calvin Abueva playfully interacted with PBA fans during short but entertaining Q&A session using the league’s official Twitter handle.
Abueva gamely answered questions ranging from his recent acting debut to his closest friends (Vic Manuel and Ping Exciminiano).
Abueva made a cameo on teleserye ‘Dolce Amore’ where he was filmed playing in a pickup game with fellow PBA player Paolo Hubalde of the Mahindra Enforcers.
Abueva’s role didn’t even last a minute. He made a dunk, had a chest bump with the show’s leading man Enrique Gil, spoke one line, and high-fived lead actress Liza Soberano.
“Sino ba yang kasama mo? Mukhang takot sa bacteria. Mukhang pabebe yata,” Abueva’s line went.
Abueva’s first acting gig only goes to show he’s better off playing basketball than appearing on television. He had eight points, six rebounds, five assists and two steals to help the Aces roll to their third straight win Friday night.
