Our National men’s basketball team, Gilas Pilipinas is now looking for alternative tournaments after the organizers of the Jones Cup in Taiwan ruled out the participation of the team to defend our crown which they won in last year’s edition of the said tournament.

Coach Chot Reyes said “Japan is one of the options, but that’s not yet final”. According to reports, team manager Butch Antonio confirmed that Japan men’s basketball team asked for a possibility of having tune-up games against Gilas Pilipinas.

Antonio said “But that’s not a tournament. It’s just an invitation to play tune-up games with the Japan national team. We are still working on the possible replacement for the Jones Cup”.
