Energetic Magnolia forward Calvin Abueva and Phoenix lefty big man Jason Perkins' status with Gilas Pilipinas are still hanging at the moment pending Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas' appeal to the Hangzhou Asian Games Organizing Committee.

Gilas interim coach Tim Cone said Abueva and Perkins, who showed up during the national team's first team practice on Monday morning, are being eyed to replace injured forwards Jamie Malonzo of Barangay Ginebra and Brandon Ganuelas-Rosser of NLEX.The 35-year-old Abueva and Perkins' names were not included in the 60-man list the SBP submitted to China, the host country during the deadline set two months back.

The American mentor added that the 36-year-old Pringle is the 'logical choice' to serve as the alternate player since 'he knows the system.''He's the logical choice for us and he's willing to be here with the idea that he may not make the 12 but at this point, he's an alternate,' added the PBA's most decorated coach with 25 titles and counting.
