Future Big Men Of Philippine Basketball

[tito thoots]

You know what happen to Dennis Pinedas boys? I read the article on spin.ph about the cabalens, and they mentioned about the 15-16 years old cablens and their height around 6'6 to 6'7.

They may have grown since last year because they were closer to 6'3 - 6'4. I think they should be almost ready to break into the uni ranks.

Here's something really rare: Two Pinoy seven-footers standing almost side-by-side in one photo. And none of them is named Greg Slaughter.

Fajardo and Aguilar will look pretty average beside them.

Raul Dillo and EJ Feihl?

Raul Dillo tried out with San Beda before landing a spot at UE with guys like Morelos, Alvin Zuniga and Jumbo Cruz in the early 90s.

Future Gilas bigmen 6'7 and up under age 25.

Greg Slaugther - 7'0, 25 yrs old, Center

Junmar Fajardo - 6'10, 24 yrs old, Center

Arnold Van Opstal - 6'9, 21 yrs old, PF/C

Troy Rosario - 6'7, (21-23yrs old) PF

Matthew Aquino - 6'7, (17yrs old) Center - Still growing

Isaac Go - 6'7, (17 yrs old) Center - Still growing

Kobe Paras - 6'7, (17 yrs old) SF - Still growing

Tzaddy Rangel - 6'7 (16 yrs old) - PF - Still growing

Kmark Carino - 6'7 (16 yrs old) - Center - Still growing

Aj Edu - 6'7 (14 yrs old) PF/C - Projected height 6'10 and above.

Ethan Kirkness - 6'5 (12 yrs old) Center - Projected height 6'10 and above. He is not 6'7 yet but 6'5 at 12 is just wow.

Really keeping an eye on this players' development, they are the future of Philippine basketball against international competition. Hoping for Arvin Tolentino to have a growth spurt as he is still 18 yrs of age. Aquino might end up at 6'9, Kamark Carino's growth spurt is consistent from 6'5 to 6'7 in two years span. Kobe Paras is also still growing, imagine if he ends up at 6'8 to 6'9 with that handles and explosiveness. But what excites me is Edu and Kirkness, they can potentially grow into legit seven-footers. Edu's dad is a coach and stands at 6'8. He is way ahead on Kirkness in terms of skills and basketball age. Hopefully SBP can do something about Kirkness' development here before hopefully sending him to states for further training and development. Pretty exciting time for Pilipinas Basketball.

How come Tzaddy Rangel never played for our U-16/17 or U-18 teams?

Just had Ethan playing against 16- 18 year olds. At 12 years old, he was holding his own . Now developed a good shot inside and learning to defend the post.

Thank you so much sir! You've been a big help to Philippine Basketball! We will appreciate your help even more once Ethan grew to his potential and playing for Gilas in the future.
