Coach Eric Altamirano will have an early look at one of the potential lineups Gilas Pilipinas 3×3 can utilize for the 2020 FIBA 3×3 Olympic Qualifying Tournament.
That’s because the quartet of Joshua Munzon, Alvin Pasaol, Santi Santillan, and Troy Rike will be playing against national teams of four Asian countries in the Jakarta 3×3 International Invitational Challenge 2019 Saturday.
“This will be a good first look on one of the combinations we can use for the OQT,” said Altamirano. “More importantly, we joined this short tournament to keep our players sharp before we head into full throttle with our preparation this January.”
In this one-day meet organized by Indonesia’s basketball federation PERBASI, the collection of the country’s best 3×3 stars will take on Southeast Asian Games-bound squads Indonesia, Vietnam, and Malaysia to go along with Chinese-Taipei.
The tournament format is single
