WITH the Lebanon and Jordan games done in the International Basketball Federation World Cup Asian Qualifiers, national team head coach Chot Reyes is contemplating on naturalizing another foreign player who’s 6-foot-10 or taller.
“With all the uncertainty surrounding the Kai Sotto situation … if he’s not going to be available, we have to think about that,” said Reyes, expressing his anticipation that the World Cup gathers taller and bigger players with super basketball skill sets. “That’s part of the plan.” “You just cannot come and show up and be on the team,” Reyes said. “It doesn’t matter who you are, you have to be part of the preparation.”
