Winslow Villaflor from The World is Mine. Recently transferred to Hungary league 3.14 with a transfer price of 750k. Will be competing for the starting SF spot of the U21 squad.

Ameer Celajes from Hbeda. Originally from United Destroyers but was bought in a free agent auction for 800k. Trained since his rookie season to be a U21 player will show why he deserves to be in this seasons U21 squad.

Raul Emologa from The Dynasand Midges. One of the better traditionally trained bigmen of this seasons U21 squad. Hungry to compete for a starting spot in the lineup.

Ulan "Raindrops" Cantara from Pro Tambays. Another player from ex U21 coach Master Cezzz who is the only 20 yo to make it in this seasons U21 squad. Team Captain in waiting for next seasons U21 sqaud. He got skillzzzz man.

"As said the World Cup does not start for another three weeks. If anyone has a player who they think is more worthy to be in the U21 squad I am only a PM away. Do so you never know what might happen. Good luck to Team Pilipinas this season!"

After the conference was over Team Captain March Madrigal held one of his own. "We of Team Pilipinas would like to say that we will show Lolo Smithz our esteemed manager we aren't misfits. We are hungry to win. The ball is round and these "Misfits" can surprise a team or two. Just wait and see...."

Buzzerbeater!

The Team Pilipinas bench erupted in joy as Piao Dakun sank a three pointer at the buzzer for a thrilling 119 to 118 win against a tough Bosnia squad who is ranked 24th in the world. Dakun grabbed a defensive rebounded from a missed free throw with only 3 seconds left and sprinted to the other side and threw a hail mary at the corner for a buzzer beating shot.

Lolo Smithz was all smiles after and was even seen high fiving his players after the terrific and exciting win surprising reporters who saw Lolo Smithz pretty serious last season.

"This season we will be playing more loose and have fun. Last season was really stressful because we had to qualify for the Worlds. It is nice to try new tactics in U21. For years we have relied on LI tactics. It is good for a change now that we have players to play the outside game also. Our Run and Gun experiment was a mild success. Needs a little tweaking to make it work better and hope our players get the right training to make it even better than it is now."

"As predicted Raffy Yee proved he has the ability to play at the highest level when given the chance. 27 points on 11 of 18 shooting including 4 out of 5 3 point shots which isn't easy to do at the PF position while hauling down 13 robounds (7 offensive) also."

"The assists department saw us with 29 assists which was the weak part of our team last season. Piao Dakun with 10 assists and 12 points and he even isn't our best playmaker at the point speaks loudly how assists will be a crucial part of our offense this season."

"The Sf position on the other hand needs a little tweaking. Ulan Cantara was too eager to shoot making just 6 out of 23 shots but he had an almost triple double like performance though with 14 points 5 rebounds and 7 assists plus one steal."

"All in all it was a rousing start for us. Our team this season as said is challenging with some very unique skill sets. We have two more weeks to try different tactics in scrimmages and see which of them really clicks with our team chemistry."

Reporters then ask Piao Dakun about his buzzer beating shot and this is what he had to say. "Lolo Smithz just needs to get the ball to me in the endgame and I will do the rest. And the team captain spot will be mine when the Worlds start. Count on it."

In a different interview for U21 Captain Marc Madrigal said that... " I may not be a good help in defense but I can guarantee that I will give my whole life fighting for rebounds for more ball possession for my team." When asked for his reaction about his vice captain statement about stealing his captain position he said in a serious but mild manners "You don't have to be a scoring machine, a defensive stopper nor a buzzbeater king to be a captain..everyone can be a captain in a certain circumtances..for as long as I can play whole heartedly I will be a captain that everyone want. Its all in the heart baby." he also said that he don't want his 1 year expossure as U21 player be wasted "nakakahiya sa mga senior ko kung hindi ako magsusumikap." and he smile...he even said to his U21 manager "lolo paburger ka naman..BURGER!!BURGER!!..
