两位拥有菲律宾血统的球员将于本月参加NBA总决赛，这也确保了总冠军将首次由拥有菲律宾背景的球员获得。
效力于纽约尼克斯队的乔丹·克拉克森和圣安东尼奥马刺队的迪伦·哈珀，两人的母亲均来自菲律宾，因此他们与菲律宾有着深厚的渊源。将于本周日满34岁的克拉克森去年7月加入尼克斯队，此前他曾先后效力于洛杉矶湖人队、克利夫兰骑士队和犹他爵士队。他也曾代表菲律宾国家队参赛。20岁的迪伦·哈珀是去年选秀大会的榜眼秀，他的父亲是五届NBA总冠军得主罗恩·哈珀，母亲玛丽亚·哈珀则是菲律宾人。玛丽亚目前在新泽西州担任一所高中的男子篮球队助理教练。克拉克森表示，这次对决对菲律宾裔美国人以及世界各地的菲律宾人来说都十分具有激励意义。哈珀则指出，篮球在菲律宾是最受关注的运动，并对能在最高舞台上代表自己的血统感到兴奋。
