2023 FIBA World Cup

Dwight Ramos to join Gilas in FIBA first window


Gilas will have a key piece from Tab Baldwin’s iteration of the team for the 2023 FIBA World Cup Asian Qualifiers’ first window.

Dwight Ramos will return to the country tomorrow, Friday and will immediately head to TNT’s and Gilas’ bubble in Batangas.

New Gilas head coach Chot Reyes confirmed the development on Spin Zoom In, adding that Ramos will arrive tomorrow.

This means that Ramos will miss Toyama’s game against Ibaraki at Adastria Mito Arena.

The 6-foot-4 Filipino-American winger was the lead man of Gilas during the 2021 FIBA Asia Cup Qualifiers. He carried the Philippines to a 6-0 record with averages of 13.8 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 2.2 assists per game.
