Playing another tough game in less than 24 hours, the
Smart-Gilas Pilipinas national developmental team battled toe-to-toe with a crack Japanese squad, but didn’t show enough legs in the homestretch.
As a result, the Filipinos absorbed their second loss in five matches after falling short against Japan, 84-74, in the William Jones Cup men’s basketball tournament at the Taipei County Stadium.
Mac Baracael finished with 24 points, import Marcus Douthit contributed 20 and Marcio Lassiter had 16 points for the national team aspirants, who fell into a tie with Japan in third to fourth places. - gma news
