Will Gozum joins Phoenix Fuel Masters after PBA Draft selection

Will Gozum is committed to playing for the Phoenix Fuel Masters after being selected in the PBA Rookie Draft.

Phoenix coach Willy Wilson sought a big man to elevate the team, and Gozum, drafted at No. 8, is seen as a potential solution.

Gozum, a former NCAA MVP with the College of St. Benilde Blazers, aims to be impactful despite being one of the smaller bigs in the PBA.

He expressed his eagerness to fulfill whatever role Coach Wilson entrusts to him for the team's success.

Gozum believes that having veteran teammates like RR Garcia and Jayjay Alejandro will help him integrate into the young squad.

His transition to the professional league was previously delayed by a knee injury sustained in 2024.
