MANILA, Philippines -- Kiefer Ravena was just getting used to the PBA grind once again when his basketball career was once more put on hold. This time, it is through no fault of his own.

The novel coronavirus pandemic has forced virtually all sports to grind to a halt, and the Philippine Basketball Association is no exception.

"Kulang-kulang, mga tatlong taon akong hindi nakapaglaro eh, kung titignan mo," he tells ABS-CBN News. Now, COVID-19 has put a pause to his third season in the PBA, before it can even begin. It is another unforeseen development in his professional career that has already featured several stops and starts.

"Pero ako, wala, wala naman sa akin. Tapos na 'yun. Tapos na 'yun sa akin," he also said. "For me, siguro may sign or may sinasabi si Lord, 'di ba?" "Kilala niyo naman ako," he said. "We just have to look at the bright side, look at the silver linings of everything. Kasi, okay sana kung it's just happening to one person, or five people, ten people. But it's happening to the whole world kasi."During his FIBA-mandated suspension, Ravena was barred from all things basketball -- he couldn't even come to the game venues to watch NLEX play.
