“Maybe that was the reason for all of the heartaches that we had to endure in the past, because finally, everyone came together and said we got to get this done and get this guy his papers,” says Gilas Pilipinas coach Chot Reyes.
MANILA, Philippines – As painful as Gilas Pilipinas’ past heartbreaks may be, they ultimately paved the way for Justin Brownlee to become a naturalized player.
These dismaying results prompted the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas to push for the Senate and Congress to hit the ground running and naturalize Brownlee.“We’re very, very thankful to the Senate and the Congress, the PBA, all the stakeholders for getting together, and finally getting Justin’s papers done,” said Reyes.
Brownlee emerged as the top naturalization candidate owing to his consistent dominance in the PBA while playing for the Gin Kings.
