Gilas Pilipinas will be without NBA star Jordan Clarkson as they participate in a pocket tournament in China, facing Senegal and Iran twice. Unfortunately, Clarkson’s arrival is delayed, and he won’t be able to play in China. Despite this setback, national coach Chot Reyes remains optimistic, highlighting Clarkson’s familiarity with the team and his professional experience. Clarkson was chosen as the team’s naturalized player, replacing Justin Brownlee. Kai Sotto and Scottie Thompson are also absent due to injury but are expected to return soon. Gilas Pilipinas will face Iran first on Thursday and Senegal on Friday, with additional games against Montenegro and Mexico lined up. These matches will serve as preparation for the quadrennial meet, where they will compete against Italy, the Dominican Republic, and Angola for a spot in the Paris Summer Olympics.
