On a team as undersized as is Gilas Pilipinas, the sharpshooting skills of Jeff Chan are invaluable. The 31-year-old from Bacolod City, Philippines is among the deadliest long range shooters in the Philippine Basketball Association and is looking to make his mark on the opposition when Gilas rolls into Seville, Spain to begin their FIBA World Cup campaign.
The former Far Eastern University Tamaraw was drafted 17th overall in the 2008 PBA Draft by Barako Bull Energy Cola where he played for a season before moving to the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters in 2009.
Chan led Rain or Shine to the Governors’ Cup title in 2012, winning Finals MVP award to go with his Most Improved Player award for the season. Chan joined the Philippine national team that year, making his debut on the team that won gold at the Jones Cup.
Despite his inconsistencies at times, Chan has shown his ability to catch hot from downtown from time to time, most recently when he led Gilas with 20 points on Monday, August 25 in their victory over Egypt. – Rappler.com
