Early life

Dylan Ababou was born in Leyte to parents Rachid Ababou and Rosemarie Rosales.[1] He was raised by his grandmother and started playing basketball when he was 8 years old.[1]

College career

Ababou played for the UST Growling Tigers Men's Senior Basketball team in the University Athletic Association of the Philippines from 2005 to 2009. In 2006, he was one of the members of Growling Tigers who won the title against the heavily favored Ateneo Blue Eagles 2-1. In 2009. He also won the Sixth Man of the Year award for that season. Ababou was crowned the Season MVP on his final year with the Tigers.[2]

Smart Gilas

Immediately after his collegiate career with the Tigers ended, Ababou was called to join the Smart Gilas Philippine national team together with the likes of Chris Tiu, JVee Casio, Mac Baracael and Mark Barroca, players whom he faced during his college career. However, his tenure with Smart Gilas did not go well as he had limited playing time with the team. Also, the arrival of Marcio Lassiter and Chris Lutz to Smart Gilas did not bode well with Ababou as his playing time grew even more limited.[3]

Barako Bull Energy

In the 2011 PBA Draft, he was drafted 10th overall by the Energy.[4] In his first game with the Energy he scored 20 points on 8-13 FG as he led the Energy to a victory against the Barangay Ginebra Kings 88-75.[5] Ababou became a key player for the Energy since then and has been in the starting lineup. The Energy made the quarterfinals but were knocked off by the Talk 'N Text Tropang Texters who had a twice-to-beat advantage. At the end of the conference, Ababou averaged 11.9 points, 4.7 rebounds, on 41% field goal shooting and 36% 3 point shooting.

Ababou was traded from the Energy to the Barangay Ginebra Kings alongside Kerby Raymundo from the Llamados. The Llamados got J.C. Intal from the Kings while the Energy got Ronald Tubid and Reil Cervantes from the Kings.[6]
