Gilas Pilipinas: Sonny Thoss
Get to know Sonny Thoss of the Gilas Pilipinas national men's basketball team.

Sonny Thoss is one of the more seasoned leaders of this Gilas team. 

Though he isn’t vocal, the 11-year PBA veteran leads by example with his play on the court. Still reliable from midrange, in the post, and on defense, the 33-year-old product out of James Cook University averaged 7.4 points and 4.6 rebounds a contest last PBA season.

The 6-foot-9 Thoss, who was taken fifth overall in the 2004 PBA Draft, also has his own share of international experience after playing in 4 tournaments for the Philippines abroad – two of them being FIBA tourneys.

The Alaska Aces big man has two selections to the PBA Mythical First Team, 10 All-Star appearances, and a Finals MVP award to boast of.

Thoss will also play spot minutes when Baldwin gives Blatche breathers. Fortunately for the national team, his production at this stage of his career remains potent, making him a quality back-up. – Rappler.com
