KOBE Paras will not be in action when the UAAP 3x3 tournament begins this Saturday at Ayala Malls Feliz.
The second-generation forward will not don the maroon-and-green of the University of the Philippines in the two-day event. No reason was given for the pullout.
He will be replaced by Will Gozum, who will now join brothers Juan and Javi Gomez de Liano and transferee guard Ricci Rivero in the Maroons lineup.
Paras, though, isn't the lone replacement for the event as Far Eastern University has also decided to bring in incoming sophomore guard L-Jay Gonzales for Ken Tuffin.
The Tamaraws, which won the event last year, will be bannered by Wendell Comboy, Alec Stockton, and Clifford Jopia.
