Jerie Pingoy is hoping to realize his PBA dreams as he is set to apply for the upcoming Rookie Draft.
The 5-foot-9 guard confirmed his next move to Tiebreaker Times.
Though the 26-year-old guard out of Adamson University is limited to individual workouts, he shared that he has been in the best shape of his life for this.
“Goal ko is magawa ko lahat ng preparation para pag dating sa drafting ready ako,” said the Cebuano guard, who is residing in Antipolo
“Sana mabigyan ako ng pagkakataon ma-showcase ko ulit yung talent ko.”
A shot is what Pingoy wants.
His collegiate career saw him figure in a rollercoaster.
Coming off a stellar run with Far Eastern University-Diliman, Pingoy was forced to sit out two years before only getting to debut with Ateneo in UAAP Season 78. During his first year, he only played in seven games, averaging just 4.0 points and 2.9 assists.
Pingoy had to leave Ateneo in Season 79 to transfer to Adamson.
In UAAP Season 80, Pingoy showed no rust, averaging 7.1 points, 5.1 assists, a league-leading 2.6 steals, and 2.5 rebounds per game.
Season 81 though saw Pingoy play back up to Jerom Lastimosa as he was limited to just 13.3 minutes per game for numbers of 3.7 points and 3.9 rebounds.
Pingoy sat out Season 82.
He returned to the D-League as a guest player for Karate Kid-CEU in 2019.
Pingoy had three points, two rebounds, five assists, and a steal against EcoOil-DLSU before dropping 13 points, two rebounds, an assist, and a steal versus Marinerong Pilipino.
