It did not take a vacation in Japan for Kevin Quiambao to make his decision.

The reigning UAAP Men’s Basketball Most Valuable Player has decided to stay on for at least one more year with De La Salle University.

The all-around 6-foot-6 forward made the announcement on Wednesday — a week after leading the Green Archers to their first title in seven years.
