|July 11, 2025
As he marked another year in his life, LA Tenorio may have also marked the end of his storied PBA career as Ginebra bowed out in heartbreaking fashion to San Miguel in their win-or-go-home semis duel on Wednesday, July 9 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
Absorbing a gut-wrenching 100-93 Game 7 defeat right on his 41st birthday, Tenorio stood at a crossroads on his career and hinted at possible retirement.
“We'll see. You'll hear it from me, definitely, in the next few weeks,” said Tenorio when asked about his future plans and possibly calling it quits after a fruitful 18 seasons that saw him win eight championships and four Finals MVP plum.
“Nakakalungkot lang, if this is really my last game,” said Tenorio.
