Therefore, he was unanimously voted PBA Press Corps Rookie of the Month.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 23-year-old led the way for his team into back-to-back wins against both Rain or Shine and Blackwater after the departure of Pringle into Ginebra on June 18. For the wins against the Elasto Painters and the Elite, and an eventual loss to the Fuel Masters, Bolick averaged 16.3 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 7.3 assists per game. In the six games during June alone, Bolick totalled 15.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 6.0 assists per game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Against the Meralco Bolts last Friday, July 12, Bolick led the way for his team in a come-from-behind win as he totalled 18 points, three rebounds, and two assists, his eight points alone in the fourth quarter crucial in their one-point victory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the Rookie of the Month award, Bolick bested out contender CJ Perez of Columbian Dyip, who received an honorable mention at four votes of 19 as he averaged 25.0 points on 55% shooting, 7.8 rebounds, 4.6 assists, and 2.8 steals.
