Junthy Valenzuela
Filipino basketball player
Junthy Valenzuela (born June 5, 1979) is a Filipino basketball coach and former player who serves as assistant coach for the Cebu Greats of the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL). Before coaching, Valenzuela played profesional basketball in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA), when he was elevated directly from the Philippine Basketball League, by the then-expansion team Red Bull Barako.
On April 14, 2008, he was traded by the Red Bull Barako to the Barangay Ginebra Kings in exchange for a 2009 second round pick and a 2010 first round draft pick.
After his PBA career came to an end, Valenzuela returned to Cebu to coach the University of San Carlos Warriors men's basketball team in the Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation, Inc. (CESAFI), where he, as head coach, led the team to the 2014 CESAFI finals for the first time since 2007. He resigned as head coach in 2015 to manage his business in Asturias, Cebu. Valenzuela returned to coaching in organized basketball in 2025 after being tapped to coach the Cebu Greats of the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL).

Why this record matters
The phrase “filipino basketball player” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
The entry’s evidential value lies in the named roles, institutions and publications that can be tested against primary documentation. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 10, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q6314378. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1979, 2008, 2009 and 2010.
Public reputation and documentary evidence do not always develop together; absence from a summary is not evidence of historical absence. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
