According to Jason, he can fill any position except Center due to
the fact that he thinks he is too short to be effective on that
position. Jason has been playing basketball since the tender
age of 12. From his youth, ball handling had been taught to him
as a very important aspect of the game therefore; most of the
time, he fills up the position of ball handler. Go figure. Jason

basketball, football, fishing and sleeping, the Singaporean
pastime. |
