THE Gilas Pilipinas 3×3 men’s team temporarily broke camp at the weekend to work on the documents needed for its participation in the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament (OQT) but it is out to finish its training strong when it resumes this week.
Set to see action in the 3×3 OQT in Austria later this month, the national team, composed of the country’s top 3-on-3 players and Philippine Basketball Association stars, spent eight straight days in its training “bubble” at the INSPIRE Sports Academy in Calamba, Laguna, before taking a break.
It treks back to camp in the middle of this week to wrap up its preparation before flying to the tournament in Graz where it goes for one of the three Olympic tickets up for grabs.
