Like many other renowned coaches and players in the Philippines and abroad, Gilas Pilipinas program director Tab Baldwin has nothing but glowing reports for Filipino wunderkind Kai Sotto.
“But there were very positive signs and there’s no reason to feel pessimistic about anything. He certainly is on the path to be a very good professional basketball player.” Despite Sotto’s short-lived stay back home following the postponement of the FIBA Asia Cup third qualifier window, Baldwin is not pointing any blaming fingers at anyone, and is instead just focusing on the positives the national team saw in his time with them.
