Watch Gilas Pilipinas (Philippines) vs Japan 2015 Jones Cup Live and Replay on September 2 at 3:00 P.M. PHL Time.
Earlier, on their first game against the host country, Chinese Taipei, the Philippine national men’s basketball team scored its first victory under new coach Tab Baldwin after turning back Chinese Taipei in the William Jones Cup.
And Gilas Pilipinas got a huge boost from two of the team’s newcomers: Terrence Romeo and Calvin Abueva.
Romeo wowed the crowd with his spectacular moves all game long. In one breathtaking play that perhaps was the most memorable, he blew past a phalanx of defenders with a killer crossover and before sinking a hangtime layup that sent the Filipino crowd to its feet.
