HIGHLIGHTS: Gilas vs Japan – Jones Cup
Live updates of the Gilas Pilipinas vs Japan game in the 37th William Jones Cup

MANILA, Philippines – After fighting through the physicality brought by Spartak Primorye of Russia and coming away with an 85-71 victory on Tuesday, Gilas Pilipinas now stands at 2-1 in their 37th William Jones Cup campaign.

On Wednesday, September 2, Gilas will aim to win their second consecutive contest when they take on Japan at 3 pm. 

Japan has lost all 3 games so far in the Jones Cup by a combined margin of 38 points. In order to keep their title aspirations alive, Japan needs a victory against Gilas.

A win for the national team, on the other hand, will improve their record to 3-1 and put them in a 3-way tie with Spartak Primorye and Chinese Taipei A (Blue) – two teams they’ve already defeated – which would lead to claiming the second spot in the league standings.

Iran, which currently owns a 4-0 record, remains in first place. – Rappler.com
