“Coach LA Tenorio talked to me when I didn’t play against New Zealand. He reminded me to stay ready and I just stayed professional. Basketball is basketball, [it’s] nothing personal. For me, I just stayed ready so I’m thankful,” said Quiambao.

“He told me that the opportunity will come. You may not know when, but it’ll come,” he added.
