GILAS FINGERS CROSSED
The Philippine Star
|January 07, 2025
Gilas Pilipinas is hoping for the best for big man Kai Sotto but is ready for any eventuality.
Sotto hurt his left knee last Sunday in the Koshigaya Alphas’ 77-79 loss to the Mikawa Seahorses in the Japan B. League, triggering fears the injury might force him out of action, too, for the Nationals’ FIBA Asia Cup Qualifiers Window 3 matches against Chinese Taipei and New Zealand next month.
Sotto, just getting better each time he dons the Gilas jersey, went down three minutes into the game and the score pegged at 6-6. He apparently hurt his knee after an awkward landing.
