31 July 2025, Manila, Philippines — Laki Play, the first officially licensed platform in the Philippines, treated two Laki Play app users with a one-of-a-kind experience at the flagship NBA Store in the Philippines.
During the 2025 NBA Finals presented by YouTube TV, Laki Play players picked their favorite NBA players, drafted their lineups, and competed to see whose team earned the most fantasy points throughout the series. Two players topped the leaderboard, which featured over 1,000 entries and won the opportunity to participate in an exclusive "Shop All You Can" challenge at the NBA Store in SM Mall of Asia in Pasay City.
On Wednesday, July 30, Laki Play contest 1st place winner “Caracute” and 2nd place winner “Drikgwaps” were provided 24 seconds and 12 seconds respectively to grab as many NBA items during their shopping spree at the flagship NBA Store in Metro Manila. They accumulated approximately PHP 175,000 worth of merchandise, turning their fantasy sports victories into tangible basketball treasures.
"We are incredibly excited to offer such a unique and unforgettable experience to our community with this shopping spree at the flagship NBA Store in the country," said Ann Jane de Leon, Assistant Marketing Manager of Laki Play. "Our mission is to make fantasy sports more engaging and rewarding. Seeing the joy and excitement on our users’ faces truly embodies the spirit of Laki Play."
The "Shop All You Can" initiative not only celebrates the passion for fantasy sports but also strengthens the bond between fans and the NBA. Fans are encouraged to play Laki Play now to participate in more promotions for a chance to win special prizes.
