vivo Philippines<\/a> is bringing together two basketball stars from different stages of the game as it hosts an exclusive fan meet-and-greet featuring Memphis Grizzlies guard Scotty Pippen Jr. and PBA MVP and Gilas Pilipinas standout Scottie Thompson.<\/p>\n

The event is set for July 30 from 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM at the vivo Concept Store in SM Megamall, marking the first time the smartphone brand has staged a fan event featuring both an NBA player and a PBA star on the same stage.<\/p>\n

The initiative highlights vivo’s continued push into basketball partnerships, following its collaborations with the NBA and local sports personalities in the Philippines.<\/p>\n

NBA and PBA stars share one stage<\/h4>\n

Fans attending the event can expect on-stage conversations, basketball stories, interactive activities, and opportunities to meet both players in person.<\/p>\n
