Eleven-year old Kirby Collado, standing 6 feet and still growing, turned heads at the recently concluded Under-12 Category of the Hon. Mario B. Bolanio Invitational Tournament of the Mindanao Youth Basketball League (MYBL). The tournament was held on March 15-16, 2025, at Macasandig Gym in Cagayan de Oro City. Playing for Ballers for Christ of Butuan City, Collado’s towering presence caught the attention of players, coaches and spectators alike. But he’s not just tall – he has strong moves around the basket and a soft touch from the perimeter, making him a promisig young prospect. Watch him in action below.
