Former San Beda stalwart Sudan Daniel passed away Saturday after an asthma attack while in Calatagan, Batangas.
He was 33.
Frankie Lim, a former Red Lions mentor who recruited the American back in 2009, confirmed to Manila Bulletin the passing of the 6-foot-7 Daniel.
“It’s sad that it happened,” said Lim.
Daniel was a force to reckon with during his time with the Mendiola-based team, which he powered to the NCAA title in 2010 through a historic 18-0 record.
During the 86th Season of the NCAA, he also bagged the regular season MVP and Finals MVP.
Daniel has found a home in the country as he worked here, initially as an executive with Titan before joining the Chooks-To-Go Pilipinas 3x3 as host of the tournaments the previous two years.
