As Gilas Pilipinas welcomed Mac Belo back to its roster, the national team will going to miss rising star Jio Jalalon of the Star Hotshots for a several days.
Jalalon hurt his left ankle in the third quarter of the Nationals’ tune up game against the Blackwater Elite last Friday. X-Ray results showed a moderate sprain.
Jalalon, however, will be ready when the team competes in the William Jones Cup in Taiwan this week.
