Those who lost out in the ROY race under such circumstances would win the MVP Award in a 3-year span.

1988: Alvin Patrimonio, because he entered the PBA only in the 2nd conference. would be hands-down choice.

1992: Vergel Meneses, his team, Presto, didn't figured prominently in all 3 conferences that season.

1995: Kenneth Duremdes, It was a close battle for the ROY honors between him and Jeffrey Cariaso.

Allan Caidic won the Rookie of the year in 1987 and would win the MVP Award in 1990.

Ato Agustin was not the runner-up to Benjie Paras in the 1989 ROY race but he did win the MVP Award after three years.

OT -ngayon ko lang napansin 6 palang members ng TNT naging ROY.
