Career highlights and awards

Christopher Joyce Fernando Javier (born December 6, 1992) is a Filipino professional basketball player for the Bicolandia Oragons of the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL).[1] He was drafted 5th overall by Star in the 2016 PBA draft.[2]

Early life

[edit]

The young Javier learned the rudiments of the game of basketball when he participated in a camp held by former PBA player Ed Cordero sometime in 2005. A year later, he was recruited by the San Beda Red Cubs, which he helped win more championships in the high school division of the National Collegiate Athletic Association.[3] When it was time for him to move to college, he planned to enroll at De La Salle University with fellow Red Cub Alfonzo Gotladera but was advised to play elsewhere to avoid playing in the shadow of his teammate.[4]

Collegiate career

[edit]

Javier played his entire five-year collegiate career for the UE Red Warriors in the University Athletic Association of the Philippines. He posted career averages of 7.1 points and 5.1 rebounds in 22.6 minutes, playing a total of 68 games.

He started turning heads during his sophomore year after averaging 10.6 points and 6.9 rebounds, an improvement from his rookie numbers of 4.6 points and 4.6 rebounds per game.[4] In the same season, he hit back-to-back game winners — first against UP and then against five-peat seeking Ateneo de Manila.[5]

PBA D-League

[edit]

Javier had an impressive stint with Racal Tile Masters in the PBA D-League.[6]

Professional career

[edit]

Javier was drafted fifth overall in the 2016 PBA draft by the Star Hotshots.

On September 10, 2017, Javier, along with Allein Maliksi, was traded to the Blackwater Elite for Kyle Pascual and Riego Gamalinda.[7]

On September 18, 2020, he signed with the TNT KaTropa.[8] He also had a stint with the team's affiliate 3x3 team, the TNT Tropang Giga, during the 2021 PBA 3x3 season.[9]

On June 3, 2022, he signed with the NorthPort Batang Pier.[10]
