Japan pros Ravena brothers, Parks, Ramos set to rejoin Gilas in November for FIBA fifth window

Gilas Pilipinas players Kiefer and Thirdy Ravena, Ray Parks, and Dwight Ramos are set to return to the Philippines on November 1 and 2 for the fifth window of the FIBA World Cup Asian Qualifiers.

The four Japan B.League players will join the national team in practice before Gilas flies to Jordan on November 7.

The Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas said it is also talking to the camp of Kai Sotto, who is currently playing for the Adelaide 36ers in the Australian NBL, on plans of including the 7-foot-3 bigman for the fifth window games.

Gilas will take on Jordan on November 10 and Saudi Arabia on November 13, both away games, for the said window.

The basketball body on Friday announced the 20-man Gilas pool which include PBA Most Valuable Players June Mar Fajardo and Scottie Thompson, along with other professional players, and collegiate players such as Carl Tamayo and Kevin Quiambao.
