MANILA--With Junemar Fajardo sitting out for most of the PBA Governors' Cup eliminations, Chris Standhardinger stood out on his behalf.
The first overall pick of last year's draft stepped up for San Miguel, and his brilliant performance put him on track of taking the Best Player of the Conference plum for the season-ending conference.
The six-foot-eight forward averaged 43.1 statistical points after the preliminary round, way ahead of closest competitor Japeth Aguilar of Ginebra, which had 34.8.
Standhardinger averaged a league-best 23.3 points and 13.6 rebounds a game with 1.6 assists, 0.9 steal, and 0.6 block.
