June Mar Fajardo has proven time and again he is this generation's greatest player after adding another Best Player of the Conference award to his haul on Wednesday, June 12. 

In a brief ceremony that ushered in Game 4 of the PBA Season 48 Philippine Cup Finals, the San Miguel main man received his 10th BPC trophy before applauding fans at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.

After averaging 17.3 points, 14.5 rebounds and 3.1 assists at the end of the semifinal round against Rain or Shine, the gentle giant from Pinamungahan, Cebu posted 43.12 statistical points to become the top player of the All-Filipino conference for the eighth time.

The 6-foot-10 slotman edged out NLEX gunner Robert Bolick (43.08 SPs) and Terrafirma rookie Stephen Holt (40.8).

Bolick normed 28.3 points, 5.2 rebounds and 6.5 assists but could not help the Road Warriors make a deep playoff run.

Holt, on the other hand, was at the center of the Dyip's renaissance as he posted averages of 21.08 points, 8.1 boards, 6.3 dimes and 2.4 steals to help his squad make the playoffs for the first time since 2016.
