High school career

In high school, Gotladera played for the San Beda Red Cubs. Together with Baser Amer and Chris Javier, they won back to back NCAA Jrs titles. [1]

Gotladera was recruited by both Ateneo and DLSU. [2] Eventually, he chose to play for the DLSU Green Archers. [1]

College career

DLSU Green Archers

However, Gotladera had limited minutes in his time there as he shared a frontcourt alongside Norbert Torres, Yutien Andrada, Arnold Van Opstal, and other veterans. [3] [1] In two seasons with DLSU, he scored a total of only two points. [1]

Ateneo Blue Eagles

Gotladera decided to transfer from DLSU. [3] With La Salle choosing to release him, he only had to serve one year of residency. [1] During his residency, he spent time with Ateneo's Team B. [2]

In one of the first games of Season 77, a match against his former team, Gotladera put up career-highs of 17 points and eight rebounds to help claim the win for Ateneo. [1] That season, Ateneo secured the first seed and a twice-to-beat advantage. [4] However, they lost twice in the first round to the NU Bulldogs. [5] In his final year with Ateneo, he averaged around four points and six rebounds a game. [6]

Professional career

NLEX Road Warriors

In 2016, Gotladera and other Gilas Pilipinas players were placed in a special draft. [7] He was selected by the NLEX Road Warriors in the 2016 PBA draft. [8]

As a member of Gilas, Gotladera got to play as an All-Star during the 2017 All-Star Week. [9] There were times during his time at NLEX that he was relegated to a reserve role. [10] At the start of 2019, he was released by the team. [11]

San Miguel Beermen

In between PBA stints, Gotladera played in the MPBL for the Pasig Sta. Lucia Realtors and the Bataan Risers. [12] He also played in the PBA D-League for the Enderun Titans. [11] In 2021, he was signed to a one-season deal with the San Miguel Beermen, marking a return to the PBA. [13]

Valenzuela Classic

In 2024, Gotladera joined the Valenzuela Classic. [14] A few months later, he was released by the team. [15]

Iloilo United Royals

Several days after he was released from Valenzuela, Gotladera was signed by the Iloilo United Royals. [12]
