Game Preview: Gilas Pilipinas vs. Japan

The Philippines’ Gilas Pilipinas Women gear up for a crucial matchup against powerhouse Japan in the 2024 William Jones Cup Women’s Basketball Tournament today.

This game comes after a thrilling 74-63 victory over Malaysia that brought their record to 1-1.

The Philippines will be seeking an upset against an undefeated Japanese team. Japan currently sits atop the standings with a perfect 2-0 record, dominating both Chinese Taipei A (97-46) and Chinese Taipei B (94-42) in their previous games.

Buoyed by their win against Malaysia, Gilas hopes to carry their momentum into this challenging encounter. Veteran leadership combined with the youthful spark of rising stars will be crucial for the Philippines. Afril Bernardino, who shone with 13 points, 6 rebounds, and 6 steals against Malaysia, is expected to be a key contributor. Young guns like Gabby Ramos and Naomi Panganiban, fresh off their success with the Gilas Girls, will also be players to watch.

Japan, on the other hand, boasts a well-oiled offense and a sturdy defense. Limiting their scoring opportunities will be a key challenge for Gilas.

This game promises to be an exciting battle between resilience and dominance. Can Gilas pull off an upset and shake up the standings? Or will Japan maintain their undefeated streak? Tip-off is set for today, July 8th, at 3:00 PM local time (2:00 PM in the Philippines).
