Kuwentong Gilas shines the spotlight on the life of Gilas Pilipinas head coach Chot Reyes when the special sports documentary returns with a new episode this Saturday, November 8, airing at 4:30PM on TV5.
Narrated by Freddie Webb, Kuwentong Gilas has been sharing with Kapatid viewers and die-hard basketball fans the story behind the lives of the Gilas Pilipinas players, with previous episodes giving some rare peeks into the lives of Gary David, Paul Lee and Marc Pingris.
For the first part of its two-episode Chot Reyes special this Saturday, Kuwentong Gilas delves into the beginnings of the Gilas head coach’s love affair with the game of basketball, along with the revelations on his rivalry-turned-friendship with Tim Cone during their younger days. The episode will also show why coach Chot chose to forego entering the PBA despite his status as one of the best collegiate point guards of his time.
Produced by Sports 5, the Kuwentong Gilas documentary has been very successful in teaching the value of hard work, sacrifice and generosity. It was one of the most-followed TV5 series this 2014 as Gilas Pilipinas prepared for the FIBA World Cup in Spain and the Asian Games in South Korea.
Sports5 is the production division of TV5 that continues to blaze the trail in Philippine sports television.
