this is why I don’t know if he’s m playing in the does he is actually good for his development. I saw mostly highlights not full games but the way he scores most of the time is like Thirdy taking advantage of his physicality and if he’s to develop as a guard he needs the ball in his hand more to create. Most of his shots he getting post up or sometimes shooting from outside but not really holding the ball as much
I think he was measured at 6’1 without shoes. I think that’s why he was shifted to guard. I agree he needs to get more playing time though.
I wonder why no B-league team is interested on Jordan Heading right now. I think he did well playing in a pro league in Taiwan a few years ago & he also played fairly well in the B-2 league.
I think Heading also did fairly well playing for the Strong Group Athletics in a Dubai international tournament last January.
Weird at one time his height was compared to Dwight who's 6'4,he's a tad taller than his Dad,so the 6'2-6'3 height is not too far off,that height measurement was way back in the Batang Gilas days.Here he's listed at 6'3 https://alchetron.com/Sean-Dave-Ildefonso
dave was measured at 6'1" as a 16 yr-old, could've grown 2-3 inches since then
Dave's issue is on defensive end..
I actually had a high regard on Dave Ildefonso during his Batang Gilas stint & up to his stint with Gilas developmental team under coach Tab Baldwin in 2021.
Having a legit 6-foot-4 natural shooting guard in Gilas would always be a good feeling. Too bad he seems to have stagnated in the last 2 years.
So JB will play for Pelita Jaya in IBL, and he will be alongside KJ McDaniels… they will also part of qualifiers for FIBA Asia champions cup next month… it is possible in near future that JB will play against one of PHL representatives when they qualify…
I can't find a tweet before that some KBL peeps felt duped thinking Ildefonso is a legit 6'4 when they brought him in but when was measured turns out Dave was just 6'2 barefoot.

Nonetheless, I agree that if he can adjust to learn to play defense he can have more minutes.
Only signed a 3 month contract and I doubt that he'll re-sign in June as he will be with Gilas and Ginebra by that time. That IBL stint is really more for Justin to get his rhythm back.
