ANGE Kouame may not be the only big man Gilas Pilipinas can look forward to when the Fiba Olympic Qualifying Tournament rolls on.
Filipino wunderkind Kai Sotto could also be available for national team duty especially now that the 7-foot-3 center is unaffiliated.
The 18-year-old center mutually parted ways with the Ignite team last Wednesday, bidding goodbye from the select team even before he could make his debut inside the NBA G League bubble in Orlando.
Without a team, Sotto can return to the country and truly make his seniors team debut, going back to his original commitment for the third window of the 2021 Fiba Asia Cup qualifiers.
