You know how some names just ring differently? You hear it, and immediately you’re back to a time when the coliseum shook, when every possession mattered, when the lights seemed a little brighter. For Magnolia fans, for Purefoods lifers, for PBA diehards—it’s James Carlos Yap Sr. Or better yet: Big Game James.
Two-time MVP. Seven-time champion. Countless game-winners. Face of a franchise. Poster boy of a generation. James Yap isn’t just a player you cheered for; he was the player you bragged about. The guy who could pull up from deep with defenders hanging on him, and still swish it like he was shooting in the driveway.
