Denzel Bowles and Mark Caguiao named Best Import and Best Player of the Conference

Denzel Bowles of B-Meg and and Mark Caguiao of Brgy. Ginebra named as Best Import and Best Player of the Conference, respectively.

In 2001, Caguioa was drafted by Barangay Ginebra Kings as third overall pick. Expectations were not high as Caguioa started as a role player and reliever to superstar but aging Vergel Meneses. However, after showing strong performances and leading the Kings to the 2001 All-Filipino finals, he became very popular. With his killer cross-overs, slashing drives to the basket, and penchant for making clutch plays, Caguioa earned the respect and admiration of the Filipino basketball fans. His exciting brand of play earned him the moniker "The Spark." At the end of his first season, Caguioa was the third Ginebra player since Dondon Ampalayo in 1986 and Marlou Aquino in 1996 to win the Rookie of the Year award.

Caguioa was emerged as the best local of the tourney, with averages of 16.9 points 6.4 rebounds, 2.4 assists and a steal per game in 32.6 minutes (over 10 games). And in this Commissioner's Cup, he lived up to his nickname, "The Spark," helping Ginebra book an automatic ticket to the semifinals.
