“They Might Lose Their Jobs”: June Mar Fajardo Jokes About Rarely Taking 3-Point Shots
June Mar Fajardo, known for his dominance in the paint, recently shared a lighthearted reason why fans rarely see him attempt three-pointers during games. In a playful comment, the San Miguel Beermen superstar quipped, “Baka mawalan sila ng trabaho” (They might lose their jobs), referring to the team’s designated shooters.
Fajardo, who has made a name for himself as a powerhouse in the post, humorously explained that if he started sinking three-pointers regularly, it might make the sharpshooters on his team less necessary. While the remark drew laughs, it also highlighted his self-awareness about sticking to his strengths on the court.
Though he occasionally teases fans by attempting a three, Fajardo prefers to leave the long-range shots to the experts, focusing on dominating the inside game where he’s most effective. Fans, however, continue to hope for a rare but exciting Fajardo three-point shot whenever he’s on the floor.
