Tungcab, Heading, Rangel to be picked in PBA-Gilas Draft

JAYDEE Tungcab, Jordan Heading, and Tzaddy Rangel are set to be picked in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) – Gilas special Rookie Draft on March 14.

Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas (SBP) president Al Panlilio announced this development on Friday.

“We were able to secure five players from the Gilas Draft in 2019 and we’re happy to welcome three additional talents in Jordan Heading, Tzaddy Rangel, and Jaydee Tungcab.”

The 6-foot-3 winger and 23-year-old Tungcab played college ball for Adamson University and the University of the Philippines in the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP).

Likewise, the 6-foot-7 center and 24-year-old Rangel played in the UAAP, donning the National University uniform. He also played for Alab Pilipinas in the Asean Basketball League 2019-2020 season.

The Filipino-Austrailan and 6-foot-2 guard Heading was teammates with Rangel in Alab. He suited up for the California Baptist University in the United States – National Collegiate Athletic Association (US-NCAA).

Heading was also a product of the Batang Gilas program, which is now known as Gilas Youth.

Tungcab, Rangel, and Heading will join 2019 PBA-Gilas special draftees Isaac Go, Rey Suerte, Allyn Bulanadi and brothers Matt and Mike Nieto as full-time members of the Gilas Pilipinas pool.

They can rejoin their mother teams in the PBA once the SBP releases them.

Fans could start monitoring flights to Doha with relative comfort. An arguably superior development transpired that month, too. Nine Canadian-eligible players secured loans or permanent transfers to new clubs in the transfer window. Many of those moves were steps up in terms of the quality and size of the respective teams. For instance, Stephen Eustaquio joined Porto on loan with an option to buy from Pacos de Ferreira. Now he’s transitioned from mid-table obscurity to a league title and into the Champions League, provided reports are correct and he joins the Dragoes permanently. Ike Ugbo was loaned to Troyes in Ligue 1 from Genk, an admittedly big club in Belgium with a rich history. But moving to a top-five European league, especially to a club under t...
