New Star Hotshots coach Chito Victolero said that his wards would use a defensive strategy in the Season 42 of the Philippine Basketball Association Philippine Cup that begins November 20. Victolero, former coach of Mahindra, replaced former Jason Webb as Hotshots coach. “I’m very excited to coach Jalalon. “Javier, our pick in the regular draft, is a big boost to our front court,” said Victolero. Victolero played for Mapua during his collegiate hoops career before joining the San Juan Knights in the now defunct Metropolitan Basketball Association.
