FEU rookie Veejay Pre is ‘the future of the UAAP, Philippine basketball,’ says Sean Chambers
Far Eastern University (FEU) Tamaraws are experiencing a significant turnaround in the UAAP Season 87 men's basketball tournament, winning three of their last four games.
The surge is largely attributed to the outstanding performance of rookie forward Veejay Pre, who has been the team's top catalyst.
Pre recently delivered a 20-point, 9-rebound, and 1-block performance in FEU's 59-51 victory over UE, following a career-high 31 points in their previous game.
FEU head coach Sean Chambers lauded Pre's talent, suggesting he is ready to represent the country in the future and is "the future of the UAAP, Philippine basketball".
Chambers believes Pre is immensely talented and still has room to grow, emphasizing that the player's full potential has yet to be seen.
Pre himself downplayed his numbers, stating his main goal is to help the team win every game and that his coach's belief motivates him.
