Ebona started playing during his college days at Far Eastern University and helped the team win the UAAP championship in 2015. Later on, he was drafted as the fourth overall pick by the Alaska Aces in the 2019 PBA draft.

In 2022, Converge FiberXers picked Arana in the PBA Drafts as the 4th overall pick and in the very first season, he was remarkable with ball in hand. He is definitely going to be the next superstar of the Converge FiberXers and the PBA.
