NLEX guard Jericho Cruz will try to help Guam notch its first win in the FIBA Asia Cup Qualifiers

Gilas Pilipinas may be parading an all-cadet crew, but a PBA player may still see action in the June window of the FIBA Asia Cup Qualifiers.

NLEX guard Jericho Cruz has been named by Guam to its 16-man pool for the June window, where they will face Hong Kong twice in Jordan.

Cruz, who holds a Filipino-Northern Mariana Islands dual citizenship, suited up for Guam in the first window in February 2020, registering 4 points, 5 assists, 4 rebounds, and 1 steal in a 94-113 loss to New Zealand.

Guam currently has a 0-1 record in Group C, where Australia and New Zealand lead with identical 2-1 cards.

Other familiar players in the Guam pool include Chris Conner and Willie Stinnett, who played for the UE Red Warriors and the Adamson Soaring Falcons, respectively.

Guam will be led by Curtis Washington, who served as import for NLEX in the PBA. – Rappler.com
