Gilas Pilipinas men head coach Yeng Guiao said the team is preparing extra hard for Italy in the upcoming 2019 FIBA Basketball World Cup in China, as it could be the “most important game” for the nationals.
The Philippines will square off with the European side on August 31 to open their Group D phase, and Guiao said the squad is extremely focused on scouting Italy and preparing because of the huge repercussions the game may have for the entire group.

The Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas have released the FIBA World Cup final 12 roster of the Gilas Pilipinas men’s national team on Sunday.
Headlining the 12-man line-up are five veterans of the 2014 FIBA World Cup in Spain: Andray Blatche, Japeth Aguilar, Paul Lee, June Mar Fajardo, and Gabe Norwood.
Gilas Pilipinas can’t rely on Blatche alone for scoring, says Norwood
Even if Andray Blatche had a near triple-double of 19 points, 18 rebounds, and 9 assists in a remarkable do-it-all performance in Gilas Pilipinas’ 92-83 tune-up win over Australian Club team Adelaide 36ers, many other players stepped up for the national team.
A total of five players finished in double-digit scoring for the nationals, as they continue preparing for the 2019 FIBA World Cup which tips off in just a week’s time.
