Larry Lopez Muyang (born June 4, 1995) is a Filipino professional basketball player for the Pampanga Giant Lanterns of the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL).
Muyang first played for the De La Salle Green Archers to begin his college career. In 2017, he moved to the Letran Knights. [1] In his first season with Letran during NCAA Season 94, he won NCAA Philippines' Rookie of the Year award. [2] In 2019, he won a championship with Letran in NCAA Season 95.
In 2018, Muyang joined the expansion San Juan Knights of the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL), where he won a championship in 2019. [3]
Muyang didn't return to San Juan for the following season, and in 2020, moved to his hometown team, the Pampanga Giant Lanterns. [4]
On November 28, 2020, Muyang announced that he would enter the upcoming PBA season 46 draft. [3] [5] In said draft, he was selected with the seventh pick of the first round by the Phoenix Super LPG Fuel Masters.
In 2025, Muyang returned to the MPBL, once again playing for Pampanga despite being still under contract by Phoenix. Paolo Bugia, Fuel Masters team manager, said that the team penalized Muyang after he was caught playing in an unsanctioned game in March. After which, Muyang "made a decision to go [to the MPBL]", but Phoenix "just wanted to move forward". The Fuel Masters have since submitted a letter to the PBA about the situation. [6] On April 13, Muyang was formally handed an indefinite ban from the PBA, with the option to appeal to the board of governors. [7] On September 4, his PBA playing rights were handed to the Converge FiberXers as part of a larger three-team trade with Phoenix and the NorthPort Batang Pier. [8]
