Teach 'em young: Japeth Aguilar exposes toddler son to basketball

It's becoming clearer that Japeth Aguilar could still be a no-go for Gilas Pilipinas in the upcoming Southeast Asian Games in Cambodia.

The high flier from Barangay Ginebra San Miguel is still recovering from a knee injury he sustained back in February, an ailment that prevented him from contributing much in the PBA Governors' Cup finals.

But Aguilar isn't slacking off during his recovery. It appears he is also using his time quite wisely, devoting much of it to daddy duties. He even shared on Instagram how he's maximizing the precious time he has with his son, Jasiah Matthias.

And it looks like the veteran big man is already exposing his son to the hoops life.

Check out this "dunk" that gives a lot of Lion King vibes.


Aguilar's son was even given a feel of what it's like to run the court.


Aguilar also showed this "boys-only meeting" with Ginebra teammates Jared Dillinger, Raymond Aguilar, and Nards Pinto.


Hope to see you play soon, Japeth!
