PBA career.
Prior the 2006 draft, this 6'4 draft volunteered to have a workout with the Aces and coach Tim Cone was impressed with the intensity and work ethic of this former University of Santo Tomas stalwart. During his days with the Growling Tigers, Luanzon had shown abilities to hit the jumpers, defend the wing players and finish the fast breaks.
Tabbed No. 18 overall in the 2006 PBA Draft, Luanzon's ability to defend the quicker players and hit the perimeter opens an opportunity for him to reach the big league. He played for Harbour Center in the PBL where he only suited up for four games. And the youngster knows that his role will be limited with the Aces but will be ready when given the opportunity.
He was a member of the Alaska Aces when they won the 2007 PBA Fiesta Conference championship.
He last played in the PBL-Liga Merger for the ANI-FCA Cultivators Team.
