About Terrence Watson

COACHING & TRAINING EXPERIENCE | 2011 - PRESENT Philippines (2017, 2018) Since 2011, I have been actively involved in coaching and skill training, specifically in the Philippines between 2017 and 2018. A significant part of my work is with the Michigan Hurricanes, where I currently lead the coaching brigade for the 16U age group. My coaching tenure has seen the development of top-tier freshmen players, including the state's #1 ranked athletes, Jaquan Stennis Jr, and Carlos Medlock Jr. In addition to this, I have been actively training Jayden Quaintance, an ESPN top 20 player from the class of 2025, and top players from Central Michigan University, such as Markus Harding and Hunter Harding. My international training experience includes working with NBA draft picks like Lauri Markkanen and Deni Advija. In the 2011-2012 season, I undertook a dual role as a player-coach for IA Akranes. This led the team to their most successful season and into the championship game. INTERNATIONAL PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL ATHLETE | 2012 - 2020 Philippines (2017, 2018) During my career as an international professional basketball athlete between 2012 and 2020, I have built a reputation across multiple basketball circuits. In the Philippines (2017, 2018), I reached the semi-finals in the esteemed Governor’s Cup, maintaining a robust performance with averages of 20 points, 12 rebounds, and 3 blocks per game. My time in Israel (2014 – 2015, 2016 – 2020) saw me seize the National League Championship, become a semi-finalist and earn a position in the Israeli National League 1st Team All-Imports due to my exceptional skill and talent. Here, I maintained steady performance averages of 17 points, 12 rebounds, and 2 blocks per game. In Finland (2015 – 2016), I demonstrated an indomitable sporting spirit, reaching the semi-finals in the Finnish National League while keeping up a reliable performance with averages of 18 points, 9 rebounds, and 2 blocks per game. My stint in Iceland (2012 – 2014) was particularly successful, where I clinched the prestigious title of National League Champion and earned the distinct honor of Player of the Year & Import of the Year on two occasions, all the while maintaining stellar stats with averages of 24 points, 15 rebounds, and 3 blocks per game.
