JIO Jalalon, Roger Pogoy, Ed Daquioag, Mac Belo, Fonso Gotladera, Matthew Wright and import Mike Myers have been called up to the Gilas Pilipinas side that will take part in the coming Jones Cup in Chinese-Taipei.
National coach Chot Reyes bared his lineup for the July 15-23 showpiece on Tuesday night that was slightly different from his team for the Southeast Asian Games in Kuala Lumpur in August.
Wright, Pogoy and Jalalon all stood out in Gilas' successful run in the last Seaba Cup in Manila and are expected to make the national side to the Fiba Asia Cup in Lebanon in August.
Although still predominantly made up of Gilas cadets, the lineup will be beefed up by Myers - TNT's standby import in the last PBA Commissioner's Cup - and Fil-German Chris Standhardinger.

Gone from the SEA Games team were Meralco's Baser Amer and Troy Rosario, who, by the time the Jones Cup rolls along, will be tied to their mother ballclubs in the PBA.
Also out of the Jones Cup team was Ray Parks, Jr.
Members of the Gilas team to the SEA Games who will also see action in the Jones Cup are Kiefer Ravena, Kobe Paras, and Raymar Jose and Gilas cadets Mike Tolomia, Almond Vosotros, Von Pessumal, Kevin Ferrer, Carl Bryan Cruz and Standhardinger.
