IS Sean Chambers next in line for the Gilas Pilipinas Youth job?
Sources close to the situation bared that the Far Eastern University coach has been approached by the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas (SBP) about handling the national youth program following the departure of Josh Reyes.
When asked about the matter before FEU’s game against the University of the Philippines on Sunday, Chambers neither confirmed nor denied the talks.
“Privileged information,” he quipped.
If true, this will be a big step up for Chambers who just started his coaching career in the Philippines.
Aside from handling the Tamaraws’ men’s basketball team, he also served as an assistant for Tim Cone with the Gilas men's team in the 2024 FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Riga, Latvia.
He previously handled Fern Bacon Middle School as the Dean of Students and also is the director and owner of JBS Basketball Club in the United States.
