From a kid who watches his idol at night, now, he's the 2013 PBA Rookie of the Year.

If you are a fan of Philippine Basketball, you would definitely know Calvin Abueva, the 2013 PBA Rookie of the Year and the first person to lead the NCAA in points, rebounds and assists in one season. Not only he became the 2013 ROY recepient but he was also a part of the First Mythical 5. How he became so good? Here's how.

At night, the young Calvin would watch his idol Robert Jaworski play at night in television. Then he would mimic it with his friends in their court. The legendary Jawo was one of the best players in Philippine Basketball and was a great rebounder. It was a simple, inexpensive way to earn a basketball education. And, that's how he became The Beast.
