PBA great Arwind Santos shows fatherly, loving side on TikTok

PBA great Arwind Santos shows fatherly, loving side on TikTok
PBA

Arwind Santos will bang bodies with anyone to get a crucial rebound. He’s willing to swap faces with his defensive assignment while trying to shut him down. And he’s always ready to take the most important shot in a huge game. Put simply, the 17-year PBA veteran is as tough as they come when it comes to the game of basketball.

But as they say, everyone has a soft side, no matter how badass someone may seem to be. The 6-foot-4 cager showed his on TikTok as he recorded a couple of dance videos with his daughters.

In one video, he showed his longing for his daughter, Jaden Chrizelyn, who was headed for the United States at the time the clip was made.

The dad that he is, Santos didn't fail to let his kids know he's got their back. 

"Sa lahat ng laban nila sa buhay, baback-upan ko rin sila." 

In the second video, the cast of kids is not complete, and the 2013 PBA MVP said he would’ve loved for Jaden and his other kid Ella to have joined him and their sisters in the TikTok entry.

"We miss you, Jaden and Ella," he said in the caption.

@arwind_sotnas sayang wala si @pasyaa at @jadensotnas kumpleto sana ang magaganda at matatangkad kung back up dancers 😊 we miss you jaden and ella 😘😘😘 #goodvibesonly #fyp? #fyp #kasapot #trend @Danica Pacia @audrey ? original sound - 💙💟 𝑺𝑷𝑯𝑬𝑵𝑪𝑬𝑹4💟💙

Yep, Arwind is a sentimental guy, especially when it comes to his children. 

Santos, who currently plays for the NorthPort Batang Pier, has won at every level. He’s a three-time champion in the UAAP. He has nine PBA rings. And when it comes to the fam life, it looks like he’s a winner as well.
