}} Lim Eng Beng (Chinese: 林嚶鳴; November 10, 1951 – December 21, 2015) was a Chinese Filipino basketball player who spent twelve seasons in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) from 1975-1986. Early lifeLim was born and raised in Tondo, Manila from an impoverished family. When he was 5 or 6 years old, his family stayed in an informal settlement. It was around this time where the young Lim would use his passion in basketball as a means to climb out of hardship and support his family. Collegiate careerLim played for the De La Salle Green Archers from 1971 to 1974. In his rookie year, the Green Archers, led by himself and Mike Bilbao, won the 1971 NCAA men's basketball championship which was La Salle's first NCAA title in 15 years. Lim, who stood at 5'11 barefoot, was a deadly scorer that could single-handedly changed the complexion of a game. By the time he was a junior in 1973, he was getting various offers from teams in the MICAA. However, Lim opted to stay for one more year upon the proddings of the late Br. Gabriel Connon, the president of De La Salle College, promising that he would be getting something special in return. So for the final time, he suited up for the Green Archers. In his senior year, he averaged 32 points per outing in the 1974 season and set a single game record for the most points (men's basketball), which is 55 - a record which stands to this day. He was adjudged the Most Popular NCAA Player, was cast into the Mythical Five, received the Sportsmanship Award and ultimately won the Most Valuable Player (MVP) award. To cap his stellar collegiate career, he steered the Green Archers to the 1974 championship. As a reward for winning the 1974 NCAA men's basketball championship, Br. Connon declared that his jersey number (#14) would be retired. In 1998, he was inducted into the DLSAA Sports Hall of Fame.[1] He claimed to have never missed a free throw during his college career.[2] PBA careerLim turned professional in 1975, suiting up for the Concepcion-Carrier Weathermakers (later known as the Quasar TV Makers) in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA). He became best associated playing for the U/Tex Wranglers (1976-1982). He would later play for the San Miguel Beermen (1982-1983), the Crispa Redmanizers (1984), the Shell Azodrin (1985) and the Manila Beer Brewmasters (1986). Lim was named as one of the PBA's Greatest Players[3] and inducted into the PBA Hall of Fame in 2013. Career highlights

During his senior year after leading his school team to the championships for the third consecutive year, he was awarded the Most Outstanding Varsity Player by the school principal. He joined China Bank in Manila, in 1970, to play in the inter-bank tournament and won the championship trophy. In 1975, when he started playing in the newly created PBA (Philippine Basketball Association), the Federation of Filipino-Chinese Chamber of Commerce quickly awarded him as one of the four Most Outstanding Youth in the Chinese Filipino community. Continually playing in professional basketball from 1975 to 1986, he was among one of the few elite Chinese-Filipino athletes in the Philippines to be recognized as a superstar athlete and have inspired many youths to follow his footsteps. In 1989, the Chiang Kai Shek Alumni Association awarded him a plaque of appreciation for the Most Outstanding Player representing the Philippines in International Tournaments.
