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.

How Vieira is transforming Palace

A cursory glance at the Premier League table suggests little has changed for Crystal Palace this season. In fact, with only one win from their opening seven games, they are three points worse off than they were at the same stage of the last campaign. And yet, despite middling results, the mood around the club is one of renewed optimism. Roy Hodgson provided stability but Patrick Vieira is striving for something more. It only takes a visit to Selhurst Park to see how supporters are responding. Last month’s 3-0 victory over Tottenham, played in a feverish atmosphere in the south-London sunshine, offered a tantalising glimpse of what the future might look like. In fact, the third goal, scored by Odsonne Edouard after fine work from Michael Olise and Connor Gallagher, was a neat encapsulation of the club’s change of direction under Vieira.

Many areas are still struggling to recover from the aftermath of these calamities. Homes and livelihood across various provinces were lost to floods, strong winds and rain. LGUs and other organizations continue to mobilize and provide assistance to all who were affected by these typhoons, but many are still in desperate need of help.
