Chris Tiu Stays With Gilas!

Hanga ako sa iyo, Chris Tiu!

Why? Because only 2 players from the Gilas core group of 12 have decided to stick with the team. One of them, Marcus Douthit, simply can't join the PBA.

The other, the aforementioned Chris Tiu, chooses not to.


In an official statement released just moments ago, Chris Tiu declares that he has decided not to join the PBA Draft and wishes, instead, to continue playing for the Philippines.

And though I am a born and bred La Sallian, I give you, Chris Tiu, a standing ovation.

You are truly a Filipino sports hero.
