Career

Playing

Luib played for Letran Knights under 3 different coaches: Caloy Garcia, Aldin Ayo and Jeff Napa. He won a championship under Ayo's coaching in 2015.[1][2]

Coaching

UAAP

Being undrafted in 2016 draft, Luib joined Ayo at De La Salle Green Archers.[1][3][4]

When Ayo left La Salle for UST, Luib also joined him.[4] He resigned with Ayo and Jinino Manansala in 2019 due to Sorsogon bubble training controversy.[5]

Converge

When Ayo was hired by the Converge FiberXers as head coach, Luib tapped by Ayo as his 1st assistant (equivalent of Assoiciate HC in the NBA).[6] He played for the FiberXers for PBA On Tour, when the team was injury-depleted that time.[7][8]

Before the 2024–25 season, Luib and Ayo left the team.[9]
