[edit] Player Profile

Paolo Mendoza is a certified scoring machine in his high school (UPIS) and collegiate (UP) days where he was scoring above 40 points. In an instance, he holds the UAAP junior record of most number of points in a single game at 69 when he led University of the Philippines Integrated School to victory over University of the East in 1994. In fact, Mendoza’s 48 points – the highest output made by collegiate player – in the 1997 UAAP season stays unbreakable until now.

He is one of the contributors that allowed the Realtors to capture the 2001 Governor’s Cup championship, the first-ever PBA title of the team. Mendoza, Marlou Aquino, and Dennis Espino are the last and only remaining members of that champion team.
