No idea. But he is part of the San Benildo team that played in the MMBL last year. He has another tall teammate who is said to have moved to NU.

Lepalam is the one standing in front of the "B".

He is indeed tall, though the kid to his right is around 6-5 to 6-6 also if he is indeed 6-8. Most probably from Saint Benild instead of Saint Benildo which is a good sign since LA Salle has a relatively good program. The 3 sign in the pics tells us they could have been 3 pt champs.

He came from San Benildo, a FSC-managed school along Marcos Highway in lower Antipolo, and moved to LSGH this year.

Saw a pic of the desert eagle with Manny Pacquiao. Pacman was only up to his chest. That should make him at least a foot taller than Manny I guess.

Heh heh heh heh, just read the comments Kerouac and I posted in the U-16 thread. He is indeed Zach Salazar, a legit 6' 6-7" transfer from an international school in UAE, expat father is an ADMU alumna. He is the biggest secret out of Moro this year. Zach has size, length and mass, athletic but has limited organize basketball exposure. Plays the 4 more than the 5 to take advantage of his ability to step outside and shoot the ball, a very young Wesley Gonzalez type of player without being a head case according to Moro regulars. :p. He is enrolled in AHS and has practiced with the U-16 players but final slot on the U-16 team given to his AHS teammate Credo, a 6' 5" post player who was one of the last cuts from the SEABA games played in CDO a couple of months ago. By the way, AHS has 4 raw post players standing at least 6' 5" or taller in Berjay, Credo, Hassan and Zach. All are barely 16 years old or younger and rookies on this year's squad except for Hassan who was a sub on last year's AHS team.

A friend of him (zachary) commented on UPB almost a year ago I think and even tagged him, saying that he should be included on the list of up-and coming tall players. I even check his videos and thought that he really looks like he can be a good basketball player if he gets proper training for a big man... but I completely forgot about him and forgot to post it here in IBN. :confused:

https://www.facebook.com/zachary.salazar.16/videos/1017369401613188/ - this was the video that I saw and thought he has decent athleticism.
