FROM the FIBA Asia Cup 3x3, Jhazmin Joson now takes her act to NBL 1 West in Australia.
Joson to Giants
The former Ateneo standout was officially signed by NBL 1 team Goldfield Giants on Monday as announced by her representative Titan Management Group.
Formed only two years ago, the Giants are affiliated with the Kalgoorlie-Boulder Basketball Association (KBBA) and plays in the semi-professional basketball league in Western Australia.
The signing came just after Joson and the Gilas Pilipinas women’s 3x3 team made it to the quarterfinals of the Asia Cup in Singapore.
Joson leads Pinays in scoring
She led the Filipina cagebelles in scoring with an average of 6.0 points per game including 11 points in a 19-8 upset of third seed Mongolia during the main draw.
Gilas women’s racked up five wins in a row from the qualifying draw to the preliminary round, before fatigue and the injury to Mikka Cacho caught up with the team in the quarterfinals where it lost to Chinese Taipei, 19-9.
