Filipino-American NBA player Jordan Clarkson arrived in Manila on Tuesday, August 8, to join Gilas Pilipinas in their upcoming campaign in the FIBA World Cup.
“I think we got a good chance to do some things. To win some games,” said Clarkson after encountering a reporter as he was making his way out of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport.
The former NBA Sixth Man of the Year is scheduled to arrive at Gilas practice on Wednesday evening.
The Philippines will be one of the hosts of the Basketball World Cup, which will begin on August 25 and end on September 10.
