Tremendous potential! I do hope Coach Rajko Toroman will be impressed and pick him in the national pool of the SBP-led squad.

His Final Four performance reportedly impressed Coach Junel Baculi and Letran assistant coach Mel Alas so he must be good. Well, I'm looking forward to seeing this young man play and see what he's got. There's so much promise in many young Filipino cagers nowadays (Bringas, Buenafe and Slaughter) I fervently wish they get developed and trained correctly.
