Remember the little guy who dances exactly like Kyrie Irving? He just got featured. Again.

Last month, Dan Andrei"Botchok" Ingco, or better known in the social media as Kalye Iriving, won Pinoyliga's "Pakitang Gilas at Home Challenge" and even impressed Tab Baldwin. And considering how fast social media moves nowadays, it's only a matter of time till the young baller gets noticed anew. And true enough, we didn't have to wait longer for another Kalye Irving.

Shaun Ildefonso, playing for the National University Bulldogs in the University Athletic Association of the Philippines, is the host of an online show "SRSLY" and in his latest episode, he featured Terrence Romeo's Instagram post with Romeo showing off his dribbling skills. Of course, the young Ildefonso, who also played for the Ateneo Blue Eaglets during his high school days, tried to replicate the dance moves of Terrence Romeo but ended up jokingly saying that he wasn't in the right condition to dance like Romeo. Then, he featured a video of Kalye Irving dancing almost exactly like Terrence Romeo whom Botchok admitted last month is one of his idols in basketball.  What made the feat extra special was that Botchok was using a flat ball and that, Ildefonso pointed out that he owns a Nike ball and he couldn't do what Botchok just did.

Ildefonso then praised the Cavite product and even asked him "if he wants to go to NU". And frankly, it would be amazing to see Kalye Irving bring his dance moves to the UAAP.
