Asian Games Update: Douthit In, Blatche Out

Marcus Douthit and Andray Blatche

According to Coach Chot Reyes via Twitter (@coachot), Andray Blatche is confirmed to be out of the Asian Games Roster due to the 3 year residency rule of the Olympic Council of Asia or OCA.

Get well Andray Blatche, Jayson Castro, Paul Lee and Marc Pingris

Four Gilas Pilipinas players suffered minor injuries in the 2014 FIBA World Cup and needs rest in preparation for the 2014 Asian Games which starts September 19, 2014 in Incheon, South Korea. Gilas Pilipinas practice starts September 12 in Manila.

Although it looks like Andray Blatche will not be able to suit up for Gilas Pilipinas in the Asian Games unless the Incheon Asian Games Organizing Committee or IAGOC changed their position before the start of the Tournament but nothing is final yet and we hope that with the help of FIBA, we will be able to convince IAGOC to let Blatche play.
