Abundo then got his chance to play in the PBA when he received an invite to try out for the Star Hotshots in 2016. For three days, he would take bus rides to Manila after playing in ligang labas games in Lucena. His efforts paid off as he was signed by the Hotshots.[11]

At Star, Abundo became a fan-favorite and an important practice player.[12][11] He participated in the Obstacle Challenge during the 2017 PBA All-Star Week.[13] He scored 14 points in a playoff win over the Meralco Bolts.[14] In 2018, he suffered a partial MCL tear.[15] He was part of the team that won the 2018 Governors' Cup.[11]
