MANILA, Philippines – Gilas Pilipinas starting guard Jayson Castro – Jayson William in international play – was up to his tricks again on Thursday, October 1, during the Philippine team’s win against Lebanon.
Early in the first period with Gilas on top just 3-2, Castro brought out a series of hesitation moves on one possession before crossing over to his left, and eventually getting to the paint where he threw up a floater to score.
Castro, a star for the Talk ‘N Text Tropang Texters in the PBA, finished with 25 points and hit 5 3-pointers, helping the national team advance to the semifinals where they will face Japan.
Earlier on Thursday, Japan took down Qatar to advance past the quarterfinals as well.
On the other end of the 2015 FIBA Asia Championship bracket, Iran and China will face each with a ticket to the finals on the line.
Both semis games will take place on Friday, October 2. – Rappler.com
