e 2019 PBA Commissioner's Cup finals on Wednesday night.

"Sorry ako? Hindi. Depende ’yun sa kanya. Kung mapipikon siya, totoong monkey siya. Kung di ka mapipikon, di ka monkey. Kami nanga-asar lang. Kami nga magka-kapatid naga-asaran din kami. Di ko naman siya kaano-ano," Santos said.Jones, the Best Import of the Conference, broke his silence on Thursday and said that Santos' actions were "unacceptable."

"Walang lugar ang racial discrimination sa basketball at sports in general at sa PBA in particular. Hindi pinahihintulutan ng liga 'yung mga ganung aksyon, at kung maulit pa, mas mabigat na sanction ang ipapataw natin," said Marcial in a statement. Marcial said Santos was apologetic during their meeting, and the San Miguel forward also posted a video of himself saying sorry to Jones, to fans of both San Miguel and TNT, and to all PBA fans for the incident.On Twitter, Santos said: "I don't mean anything bad for you, I hope you forgive me."

Giving him a fine is not enough! Kume, isipin mo nga... sumusobra na ang kayabangan nga mga atleta nyo... saka, papag-aralin nga yang santos na yan, sobrang baba naman yata ng edukasyon nyn!

Ta****igit mo Alwin

200k lang dapat 500k para magsisisi ang ugook na ito. Pinoy nga talaga, dito pa nagkalat, racist at bully ah.

Multa lang? Hindi magtitino yan sa multa lang. 200k is nothing for him. Bka nga hindi pa galing sa bulsa nya yan eh. Dapat dyan suspension at education.

You should be banned forever. It maybe okay to you to mock someone but your action is very racial. It's basically saying an 'N' word.

Mas magaling kc sa kanya kaya ganyan yan...

He needs to develop self-awareness, empathy, and humility. Maybe a stronger reaction from the PBA will do the trick.

edgardjrpangga oi ung idol mo pagsabihan mo 😆😆

Parang ang bait bait ni arwind dyan? 😂

He’s a professional player, so have a nice character, there a millions fans (children, elderly) who are watching you, so be nice

KARMA has more to offer for you arwind... Karma will give what u deserve!!!

SUSPEND DAPAT!

May kalalagyan din yang kumag n yan,

Is it right to criminalize this? I don’t think it’s any different to thinking you’re entitled to use violence just because someone offended you. I’ve only now known about this law.

Sinisira mo image ng mga kapampangan

Hahaha “Kung mapikon cya e totoong monkey cya,, kung hindi xa mapipikon hindi xa monkey” - Arwind Santos ,, gunggung san utak mo 😂😂😂

Can someone put up a banner or chant arwindisaracist

The fine was good. I think he should also be suspended.

Dapat suspension. Akala ata nya kakampihan siya nang mga fans eh. Sira ulo. 🤬

Dapat lng sa kanya yan yabang kc

Suspindihin yan racist na hinayupak! ganyan asal mamanahin ng mga anak nya yan😠

Is it just me or PBA got a little too sensitive on this kind of matters nowadays when previously they were overlooked..?

kung hindi ka pa kalampagin hindi ka mgsosorry 🤨 proud ka pa sa interview mo after ng game na dmo need mgsorry tsk tsk tsk buti nga gnyan lng penalty mo dpat nga may game suspension k din 😜

Maging humble ka boy!!!

Buti nga zau gg kang arwind ka, bastos ka at naps unprofessional mo, ndi ka ba nahiya sa sarili mo higit sa lahat sa mga anak mo na nannonood ng laro mo, tingin mo ba naging magandang halimbawa ka sa paningin ng mga anak mo.

serves him right!

Fine lang dapat ibigti na yan. Kung makapanglait akala mo walang kapintasan! Bugok...nakakahiya ka! Ikaw hindi ka lang mukhang unggoy kundi asal unggoy ka pa!

arwindsotnas you should know that Filipinos in the States have had to put up with racists calling them 'brown monkeys' for years. The term is derogatory and hurtful. Be better, dude.
