Ravena revealed that he still can’t believe that he became part of the brand.

“I feel like I’ve been welcomed with open arms. I still can’t believe it. I remember speaking to the Brand about it last year. The news has been embraced by a lot of people around me. It’s amazing to be part of this incredible team of athletes,” Ravena said.

He thanked Jordan brand for the opportunity and his fans for all the love and support.

“I still can’t believe that I’m part of the Jordan Brand Family. I’m very fortunate to have a great support system. My parents, my friends, my teammates and the fans. In basketball, that’s all you need. Thank you @jumpman23, I’m thankful for the opportunity to be the first Filipino joining the Jumpman Family. #JUMPMAN,” Ravena, a five-time Southeast Asian Games gold medalist, wrote on his Instagram account.
