Remy Martin pays homage to the PH after US-NCAA title win

April 7 ------ UNIVERSITY of Kansas guard Remy Martin proudly wore the PH flag on his back as he posed with the NCAA trophy. Martin — who obliged for 14 points, three rebounds, and one assist, steal, and block apiece — was a powerhouse for the Jayhawks during their title win against North Carolina, 72-69, yesterday (Manila time).

Now a senior, it is both his first and final year for Kansas after a transfer from Arizona State. Martin and the Jayhawks captured KU's only second national title in history, after their 2008 conquest. "This is bigger than me," the Filipino-American standout wrote in the caption of his post with a Philippine flag emoji.

The 23-year-old California-native holds a dual citizenship, which makes him eligible to play for the Gilas Pilipinas national team in certain competitions.
