MANILA, Philippines - The Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas yesterday vowed to work on the naturalization papers of Chinese center Zheng Xiaoping early next year after it was shelved despite Congress’ approval on its second reading.
“I have no update on the matter, maybe because of the holiday season,” SBP executive director Sonny Barrios told The STAR yesterday. “But the SBP will work on it next year.”
The SBP had hoped to include Zheng in the team that finished second in the recent SEA Games.
