God never leaves the voices of His children unheard.

Gilas Pilipinas is off to the semifinals of the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Riga, Latvia, despite losing to Georgia, 96-94, Thursday night (Manila time). 

And shock the world Gilas Pilipinas did.

Gilas Pilipinas absorbed a hapless 141-45 beating at the hands of the reigning champion and world No. 1 USA to bow out of contention in the 2024 FIBA U17 World Cup Wednesday at the Sinan Erdem Dome, in Istanbul, Turkey.

Is Justin Brownlee the Michael Jordan of the Philippines?

To say that the entire basketball world was shocked after Gilas Pilipinas stunned World No. 6 Latvia in the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Riga Thursday morning is an understatement.
