The Sean Chambers era has truly begun at Far Eastern University.

The PBA great has secured the commitments of former Gilas Youth standout Jayden Jones and American student-athlete Montell Shelton.

Jones is a 6-foot-2 guard who previously suited up for Gilas during the FIBA Under-16 Asian Championship in 2022.

He was teammates with former Tamaraw and now UST Growling Tiger Renzo Competente.

During the NBTC-Manila Live tournament, he played for the Manila Live team, averaging 14.2 points in five games played.
