In an abrupt move, Gilas Pilpinas has tweaked its lineup days before the start of the 19th Asian Games in China due to eligibility issues.
Meanwhile, Marcio Lassiter will take the place of RR Pogoy who has withdrawn from the national team as he is dealing with a"serious health issue." The two forwards chosen by Gilas interim head coach Tim Cone as replacements for Jamie Malonzo and Brandon Ganuelas-Rosser were ruled out due to injuries.
