Pasaol thinks ahead

MANILA, Philippines — Joshua Munzon and Alvin Pasaol, half of the Philippine 3x3 team seeing action in the Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Austria next year, are hoping they could practice with PBA players CJ Perez and Mo Tautuaa by January.

“We need to start training together for the OQT,” said Pasaol moments after he and Munzon led Zamboanga City to the Chooks-to-Go President’s Cup title Friday.

Munzon said they would need at least three to four months to build chemistry with Perez and Tautuaa, who are currently honoring their commitment with their mother teams in the PBA bubble in Clark.
