CJ Perez dedicates PBA Finals run to aspiring young players

San Miguel Beermen's CJ Perez is entering his fourth PBA Finals, dedicating this run to underprivileged children with aspirations in basketball.

Perez, who hails from Pangasinan, shared his personal journey from humble beginnings, emphasizing the challenges faced by young players from provincial areas.

He stated that his motivation is to inspire kids from other provinces who lack the resources and budget to pursue their dreams in Manila.

Perez aims to inspire these children, particularly those lacking resources like proper equipment or transportation, to pursue their dreams with unwavering determination.

His career achievements include two PBA championships, a Finals MVP award, and multiple selections to the PBA Mythical First Team, along with international success in the Asian Games and Southeast Asian Games.
