Barangay Ginebra forward Japeth Aguilar is now the PBA’s leading scorer in the Philippine Cup and to add to his growing list of accolades, he was recently cited by FIBA for his throw-down as the best alley-oop play of 2013 in an on-line poll no doubt dominated by Filipino posts.
FIBA communications director Patrick Koller, writing from the federation head office in Mies, a Swiss border village near Geneva, alerted The Star on an article published in fiba.com about the 6-9 frontliner who scored 29 points against Alaska last Saturday to seize the top spot of the PBA scoring ladder with a 19.69 average.

The 2014 FIBA Basketball World Cup in Spain will be as good a time as any for Japeth Aguilar to show off his skills before scouts and pursue his NBA dream.
That, however, is farthest from his mind right now.
The 6-9 Aguilar, who took time off from the local pro league last year to pursue his dream of playing in the NBA, vowed his focus will be on doing his job for Gilas Pilipinas and not on the numerous scouts that will surely be in the stands when they play in next year's world championships.

NBA Scout: Japeth Aguilar A 'Work In Progress'
LOS ANGELES, California – After two days and six hours of workouts, New Orleans Hornets scout Don Sellers said he likes what he sees in Japeth Aguilar, but believes the former PBA top draft pick is not yet ready for the big show.
Sellers, an advanced personnel scout for the Hornets, likes Aguilar’s athleticism, agility and potential, but feels the 6-foot-9 Filipino needs to become more aggressive and develop “toughness” to play in the NBA.
“I think he’s a work in progress. I like some of the skills he brings to the table. Again, I want to reiterate this. He needs to become more of a Westernized player, which you saw today he’s made a commitment in doing,” Sellers said.
