MANILA --After just four games with Barangay Ginebra, veteran guard Maverick Ahanmisi appears to be at home with the perennial crowd favorites.

Ahanmisi has been a consistent presence for the defending PBA Commissioner's Cup champion, helping the Kings to a 3-1 start for a share of second place with two other teams.

He played a key role in the team's last two outings against Rain or Shine and Blackwater, respectively, averaging an all-around game of 20.5 points, 9.0 rebounds, 7.0 assists, and 1.5 steals in the twin victories.

The impressive numbers made Ahanmisi the unanimous choice as PBA Press Corps (PBAPC) Player of the Week for the period Nov. 22-26.

Last year's Most Improved Player who joined Barangay Ginebra this season as an unrestricted free agent, Ahanmisi shot a high 50 percent from beyond the arc behind a combined 6-of-12 shooting.

One of those treys came at a crucial moment for the Kings in their game against Rain or Shine as it stopped the rallying Elasto Painters on their tracks and pulled off a 107-102 win.

He was 5-of-7 from three-point range to finish with 21 points against the Elasto Painters.

Opposite Blackwater, Ahanmisi finished with 20 points as the Kings overhauled a 17-point first half deficit to prevail, 90-87.

Ahanmisi beat out Barangay Ginebra teammate Christian Standhardinger, Don Trollano of NLEX, Jason Perkins of Phoenix, San Miguel's CJ Perez, and Chris Banchero of Meralco.
