Chris and Charles Tiu, two of the most respected names in Philippine basketball, are stepping off the court to lead a new kind of game. The brothers are the faces of “Tius Your Play,” a campaign that highlights strategy, intelligence, and leadership in fantasy basketball.
Known for their sharp basketball IQ and lifelong dedication to the game, the Tiu brothers aim to guide Filipino fans on how to think and play like real coaches. Their involvement in the campaign reflects their shared belief that success in basketball — whether on the hardwood or in fantasy leagues — comes from discipline, analysis, and smart decision-making.

From hardwood heroes to strategy mentors
For Chris Tiu, the campaign is an exciting new platform to connect with fans who share his passion for the game. The former Ateneo Blue Eagles captain and Rain or Shine Elasto Painters guard brings his championship experience and leadership to help players understand how strategy and preparation lead to winning results.
“Fantasy sports are about strategy and decision-making,” said Chris. “It’s where fans get to think like a coach — building lineups, studying matchups, and applying their basketball knowledge in real time.”
Beyond his time as a player, Chris has become a respected voice in sports broadcasting, making him an ideal mentor for aspiring fantasy players looking to learn the nuances of the game.
Meanwhile, Charles Tiu continues to shape the sport as a coach and analyst. Having led the College of Saint Benilde Blazers to their first NCAA Finals appearance in two decades and guided Strong Group Athletics to international success, Charles brings a deep understanding of tactics and player development.
“Fantasy sports let fans take control of the game,” Charles explained. “You’re calling the shots — deciding who to play, who to bench, and how to adjust your strategy. It’s not about luck; it’s about basketball IQ.”
Bringing basketball intelligence to fans
The “Tius Your Play” campaign celebrates the brothers’ shared approach to the game — one built on preparation, intelligence, and passion. Fans can look forward to exclusive content featuring the brothers’ insights through segments like “Tiu-torials,” “Tiu-Nament,” and “Fantasy with a Heart,” giving them access to the same mindset that drives their success.
As ambassadors, Chris and Charles aim to inspire the next generation of basketball thinkers — fans who see the sport not just as entertainment but as a test of mental sharpness and strategy.
For Filipino fans ready to challenge their basketball knowledge and join the growing fantasy sports community, the campaign offers an exciting opportunity to play and learn directly from two of the game’s most intelligent minds.
