“This is my first time coaching [in professional level]. It wasn’t easy. But I’m glad that our players trust each other. Even without coach Shaq, they still played well and got our first win,” Beliran said in Filipino. “But coach Shaq gave me advice to coach without pressure before he left.”
Beliran added that Delos Santos will be back next week.
