Gilas not likely to naturalize guards like Lakers’ Clarkson, says Baldwin
Despite Fil-Am Los Angeles Lakers guard Jordan Clarkson expressing interest
in playing for the national team, head coach Tab Baldwin admitted Gilas
Pilipinas is not likely to naturalize guards in the near future, stating that
big men are still the priority.
儘管湖人菜鳥後衛Jordan Clarkson有興趣替菲律賓國家隊出賽，
但他們不太可能在不久的將來歸化後衛，反之他們需要的是內線大個。
“The difficult thing for Jordan is traditionally the Philippines needs a big
man in a naturalized role,” he said Sunday, March 22 following Talk ’N Text
’s twice-to-beat clinching win over Alaska in the 2015 PBA Commissioner’s
Cup.
“If there ever came a time that we needed a guard, it’s great to know that
Jordan is available. He’s easy to naturalize.”
對此，菲律賓國家隊總教練Tab Baldwin表示...
「這件事對Jordan(Clarkson)是比較難的，從菲律賓的傳統看來是需要一名大個子，
如果真的到了我們需要後衛的時候，Clarkson可以加入那會非常棒，
歸化他是很簡單的事。」
