Well yea my former team mate Kobe Paras played D1 last year (yambs are solid tho for him) but did not do to well but the thing is here in the Philippines asians develop their bodies late so that reduces the chance and some of the guys coming out.Some of the players from the poor families reportedly get offers to try out in schools like Butler for example but the colleges here offer as high as $80 000 plus $1 000 every month as allowance to play for colleges here i cant blame them for taking the bag
Interesting and a small world. Creighton is in my home town.
I just couldn't remember the last time a saw a Filipino play college basketball. I know Corey Jefferson was over there getting 40 and 20 all the time. There's probably a market here for some of their good guards if they want to play college basketball
