Photo from Facebook/Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas.MANILA — Dwight Ramos has always been a solid contributor for Gilas Pilipinas, and the fan-favorite ace will look to maintain his stellar play in the 2025 FIBA Asia Cup.</div>The 6-foot-4 wingman was as good as advertised anew in their send-off game last Monday against the Macau Black Bears, with Ramos putting up 19 points, six assists, four rebounds, two steals, and a block in their 103-98 win at the Araneta Coliseum.And while the Big Dome crowd was delighted to witness Ramos one last time before Gilas flies to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, his girlfriend Kim Kianna Dy was the least surprised by the Japan B.League star’s showcase.“He has been working hard to get in shape in preparation for the games,” the PLDT High Speed Hitters ace told a few reporters. “Kita naman yun, kaya I’m very proud of him.”<div>Dy, for her part, has been just as impressive in the 2025 Premier Volleyball League on Tour, even posting a vital nine-point outing in their recent win over the Nxled Chameleons to clinch a spot in the quarterfinals. <img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1753873069832IMG_7827.jpeg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt="PLDT High Speed Hitters standout Kim Kianna Dy in the PVL on Tour.

Pero we still found a way, we had dinner before,” she added.Dy and Ramos will again spend time away from each other in the coming weeks, with the High Speed Hitters competing in the playoffs, and Gilas looking for glory anew in the Asia Cup.Despite this, the De La Salle University product is excited to become the Levanga Hokkaido team captain’s biggest fan once more even if they are separated by over 5,000 miles.“This is it,” said Dy. “I know you’ve been working very hard to get where you are right now, and I’m very proud that you are playing very well. Hopefully, you continue it sa games mo in Saudi.”<div> RELATED VIDEO:</div><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAFz8gWM8iRADsJr&amp;cid=ABdQZNdaoK3QnUNU"></script>
