Mocon, stayed with his alma mater and suited up for the Red Lions in 2014.[2] He was part of the San Beda Red Lions team who won the title, San Beda's 5th consecutive, its eighth title in the past nine years and 19th overall men's basketball crown.[3]

According to a Slam Philippines article during his rookie season, "he’s a legit 6’4” forward with low post footwork, he is a mean slasher off the triple-threat stance, and he has a respectable 15 foot jumper especially from the elbows. His rebounding and inside defense have been superb in the juniors, and that’s what he expects to contribute right away to the defending 4-peat NCAA champs."[4]

In his second year with the Red Lions, under new head coach Jamike Jarin,[5] they fell short of securing a rare six-peat championship crown, ending as the runners-up in 2015. In an interview with Fox Sports, he stated, “I don’t want to remember that feeling and ‘yun ang motivation ko, sobrang sakit talaga nung matalo kami sa Letran, archrival pa namin."[6]

Professional career

[edit | edit source]

In the 2018 PBA Draft, the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters drafted him with the 6th pick.[7] In his PBA debut back on January 18, 2019, Mocon helped Rain or Shine on an 96–87 win over the NLEX Road Warriors. He finished the game with 13 points and 5 rebounds.[8] On February 1, he grabbed a career-high 17 rebounds in a win against the San Miguel Beermen.[9] For the month of February, he beat CJ Perez for Rookie of the Month, leading his team to a perfect record for that month.[10] He also played in that season's Rookies vs. Sophomores game, scoring the game-winning tip-in basket.[11] He won another Rookie of the Month award, this time for July.[12] He ended the year as a member of the All-Rookie Team.[13]

In Mocon's second season, he scored a career high 25 points on 7-of-9 shooting in a win also against the Beermen.[14]

In March 2022, he became a restricted free agent.[15] On June 7, his rights were traded to the Phoenix Super LPG Fuel Masters for Nick Demusis and two future draft picks.[16] Hours later, Mocon officially signed a three-year deal with Phoenix Super LPG.[17]

In September 2024, Mocon was traded to the NLEX Road Warriors for Ato Ular and a 2025 second-round pick.[18]
