After 15 months of basketball inactivity due to his suspension, Calvin “The Beast” Abueva is trying to get back to basketball in the PBA bubble hardwood after arriving in Clark.
In light of the issue, the Games and Amusement Board (GAB) already revealed the two last requirements for The Beast so that he can finally come back to the PBA.
Previously, GAB and chairman Abraham Mitra said that Abueva needs to reclaim his player license before he can join the team.
To claim back his license, GAB said they are tasking the PBA swingman to attend their seminar “The Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards of a Professional Athlete” to be done online since he can’t go out of the bubble as part of the league’s health protocol.
In addition to the seminar, Abueva would need to undergo a mandatory drug test as his final requirement.
The drug test will be a part of Abueva’s medical requirement and will be done in Clark, where the PBA has the capability and the facility to do so.
During their meeting, PBA chairman Willie Marcial and the board then described Abueva as being “remorseful in what he did and was sincere enough to accept his wrongdoings. he apologized with a promise that he won’t repeat the same mistake.”
