MANILA--A sixth consecutive PBA Philippine Cup Best Player of the Conference could be in line for Junemar Fajardo.

The San Miguel center once again ruled the statistical points department up to the semifinals.

Fajardo averaged a whopping 41.4 SP's per game, way ahead of second placer Sean Anthony, who had 37.1.

Anthony's fellow NorthPort stars Stanley Pringle (34.8 SP's) and Mo Tautuaa (33.1) were in third and fifth places respectively, while TNT's RR Pogoy (33.6) is in fourth.

All the said players are eligible for the said award, that is, the media covering the beat, the PBA Commissioner's Office, and all the players can vote for either of them during the balloting period.

Calvin Abueva was actually in the Top 5 after the quarterfinals, but after piling up a number of technical and flagrant fouls in Phoenix's semifinal series against SMB, he fell to number six at 31.6 SP's.
