Carlo Lastimosa
Filipino basketball player
Carlo Dan Lastimosa (born September 3, ) is a Filipino professional basketball player for the Biñan Tatak Gel of the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL) and PSL. He was drafted 20th overall by the Barako Bull in the PBA draft.
Early life
[edit]Lastimosa comes from a family of basketball players. He's the son of former PABL player Danny Lastimosa, brother of the former captain of the UST women's volleyball team, Pamela Lastimosa, and nephew of PBA Legend and three-time Mythical Team awardee, Jojo Lastimosa.[1] It was only natural then that the younger Lastimosa started playing basketball at the young age of five in their family's residence in the city of Cagayan de Oro. Watching his uncle Jolas play professional basketball was a very big influence for Carlo to opt to make a career out of the sport later on and develop an ambition of following his uncle's footsteps by making it good in the PBA someday.[2] • Roman Catholic college in Manila, Philippines Former names Motto in&#;English Religious affiliation Academic affiliations Administrative staff Taft Avenue Malate Manila PhilippinesDe La Salle–College of Saint Benilde
