    GILAS Pilipinas resumed practice on Monday morning ahead of the Southeast Asian Games in Cambodia next month.

    Gilas Pilipinas resumes practice

    The national pool reconvened after canceling its weekly session last Monday due to lack of players, with only seven confirming their attendance.

    National coach Chot Reyes confirmed in a text message that Gilas conducted an 8 a.m. practice this time after holding its first session in the evening two Mondays ago.

    "It's our first real practice," the veteran mentor said in a phone call as he talked about what transpired in practice and immediate future plans ahead of the SEA Games that start on May 5 in Phnom Penh.

    News5’s Martie Bautista covered the training session, reporting 10 pool players showing up, on top of practice player Sean Anthony.

    PBA stars CJ Perez, Chris Ross, and Marcio Lassiter of San Miguel, Meralco’s Chris Newsome and Aaron Black, NorthPort’s Arvin Tolentino, and Brandon Ganuelas-Rosser of NLEX came in practice.
