Listen to your own. Listen to your best. Practice what you taught them. Practice what they embody.

Just a week ago, he flew to Manila. ALIVE. With big basketball dreams.

Now, he's back home, his family grieving, his dreams cut short.

Kasi nman, as adults, we should PROTECT young dreams, not risk them for our own chase of glory.

Mahiya tayo kay Rene at kay Divine. 😭😞

EARLIER: The remains of Ateneo basketball player Rene Baterbonia arrived in Davao City early Friday morning aboard a private plane.

According to a report of GMA Regional TV’s Efren Mamac on GMA News’ Unang Balita, the aircraft carrying Baterbonia's remains landed at the Davao International Airport around 2:43 AM.

His family members, friends, and acquaintances were present to receive him.

Loss of life (young life at that) brought about by avoidable circumstances that the victims were exposed to by authority figures that were supposed to care and nurture them - is a tragedy that requires accountability. No it won’t bring back Divine and Rene, but we cannot allow people in power to be protected when their authority and status were wielded to put young men in precarious situations that took their lives. There’s anecdotes on record of precedent, there’s a grieving mother asking for the most basic details amid official statements saying they are ‘working closely’ with the families.

Investigate this to the fullest. Basketball is by no means more important than protecting our young people, most especially those who come from backgrounds that force them and their families to look at a roster spot, game minutes, a coaching staff’s favor and approval - as tickets to a better life.

Pay close attention to who says what, if anything at all. If you’re not enraged by the avoidable accident that took the lives of two young men, if your instinct is to protect an institution’s reputation over condemning those responosible for two boys dying, if you would rather be silent because you’re worried about relationships or your place in the industry, then you’re part of the problem.

This was avoidable. This was negligent. It’s only basketball, ffs. There are people responsible. Hold them accountable.

To dreams not fully lived and lives gone too soon.

We mourn the lives of two Blue Eagles, Rene Baterbonia and Divine Adili, with the Ateneo community, their families, and the UAAP.

May they rest in peace. 🙏🏼

Republic Act 12318 granted Philippine citizenship to Maodo "Malick" Diouf, a 6'11" basketball player born in Dakar, Senegal who is being considered to be included in the Gilas Pilipinas' 3x3 pool.

Republic Act 12319, meanwhile, granted Philippine citizenship to Elizabeth Jeanette Means, who wants to play for the Gilas Pilipinas Women's National Team.

The two measures lapsed into law last May 18, 2026.

Diouf played a "crucial role" in the University of the Philippines Fighting Maroons' successful bid to bag the UAAP Season 84 championship, according to the House bill seeking to grant him Filipino citizenship. He was named the Most Valuable Player in UAAP Season 85. | via @alexisbromero

One week na kinulong ang isang matanda dahil lang nagtatrabaho siya para sa kanyang apo.

Samantalang si Bato, na may kaso sa ICC, prinotektahan pa sa Senado.

Ngayon nyo sabihin na patas ang batas sa Pilipinas.

I weep for our country. Whatever your political bent, the situation unfolding now at the senate is unacceptable. We are embarrassing ourselves before world.
