Charles Keith Reyes Jensen (born January 7, 1988) is a Filipino-American former basketball player who last played for the CLS Knights Indonesia of the ASEAN Basketball League (ABL).

Professional career

[edit | edit source]

Jensen was selected 8th overall in the 2012 PBA draft by Barangay Ginebra San Miguel.[1] In his Ginebra debut, he contributed 13 points on 5-of-7 from the field shooting.[2] As losses started to pile up for Ginebra, he soon found himself losing minutes in the rotation to Rico Maierhofer, Willy Wilson, and Rudy Hatfield.[3]

Jensen would later be traded in the season from Ginebra to Barako Bull for Josh Urbiztondo.[4]

On June 20, 2014 Keith Jensen was traded to GlobalPort Batang Pier in exchange for RR Garcia.[5] He scored a career-high 21 points on 8-of-13 shooting in 28 minutes in a win over the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters.[6][7]

On May 11, 2016, Jensen was traded to the Star Hotshots along with Jonathan Uyloan for center Yousef Taha and for Sophomore Ronald Pascual.[8] However, Jensen did not play a single game for the Hotshots, and on July 30, 2016, he announced that he will be leaving the team to go home to San Diego, where Jensen explains that he will address some personal matters.[9][10]

On February 1, 2018, Jensen was signed by ASEAN Basketball League (ABL) club CLS Knights Indonesia, replacing Rudy Lingganay as the team's ASEAN Heritage Import.[11][12] He debuted with 18 points in 25 minutes off the bench in a win over Westsports Malaysia Dragons.[13]
