MANILA, Philippines — Tim Cone is looking at tapping Barangay Ginebra's veteran big man Japeth Aguilar to fill in the spot of injured wingman Jamie Malonzo as Gilas Pilipinas is set to prepare for the FIBA Olympic Qualifying tournament by June.Cone shared his thoughts during his interview with veteran sports caster Carlo Pamintuan at the Youtube sports channel Gilas Nation on Monday.'We are looking for Japeth again to try to come and be a part of the 12.
He's an easy guy to get along with,' shared the 66-year-old Cone, who steered the Philippine team to victories over Hong Kong and Taiwan during the first window last February.'He's so sacrificial. He'll step in the background and doesn't have to be at the forefront all the time, which makes him a great teammate,' he added.'No. 2, he knows our system and has been with me for a long time.
