Wilson’s baptism of fire as Phoenix coach happens in Davao
Phoenix Fuel Masters will debut their new coach Willy Wilson in the 40th Kadayawan Invitational Basketball Tournament in Davao, running from August 21-24.
This tournament serves as a tune-up for the PBA's 50th season and will feature NLEX, Converge, and Blackwater.
Wilson, who has been with the franchise since 2016 as a player and joined the coaching staff in 2020, replaced Jamike Jarin.
The Fuel Masters are looking to bounce back after a struggling 2024-25 campaign where they posted eight wins in 33 games and missed the playoffs in all three conferences.
Coach Wilson expressed confidence in the current roster, highlighting talents like Jason Perkins, Tyler Tio, Ken Tuffin, Kai Ballungay, and veteran players.
He emphasized that the team's ability to work together and achieve consistent wins will be key to success.
