Tamayo severs ties with Ryukyu
MANILA, Philippines — Carl Tamayo has parted ways with the Ryukyu Golden Kings in the Japan B. League.
Tamayo will come home next week for the meantime to assess the next step in his young career after seeing limited action for the Golden Kings, the reigning B. League champions with an impressive 20-9 record.
“We believe that finding a team where Carl can maximize his potential and make a substantial impact is in his best interest,” said Virtual Playground, Tamayo’s management, in a statement.
The Gilas Pilipinas forward has played only an average of 12.5 minutes this season with norms of 3.9 points and 2.5 rebounds for Ryukyu, which granted his release yesterday as his camp is in the hunt for a new team that would give him more opportunity to showcase his talent on the court.
“The decision aims to provide Carl with an opportunity to explore new horizons in the Japan B. League, allowing him to showcase his skills and make a more significant contribution to another team,” the statement said.
Tamayo, who opted to go pro in Japan last year after only two years with the University of the Philippines in the UAAP, nonetheless expressed gratitude to Ryukyu for serving as his first home in the professional world.
