Tyler Harris is investing for the youth development of Qatar through Evo Sports. He also said that Qatar needs more to progress in basketball.

This article may have dropped the clues as to why Harris was classified as a local Qatar.

His IG and LinkedIn accounts may also give us some clarity here.

Not convincing... Clarkson have charities here and helping young Filipino kids thru programs but why he didn't classify as local... Any player of any origin can do that... Don't base on that article.. as per Mr. zagklis, exemption needs having strong connection to his country that he will play... He didn't enter residency as he played numerous leagues overseas.. he just finished his stint in Argentina just summer.. so that means he's not qualified as local..
 
Just me , for Gilas I like the competition provided by the likes of Cambodia and Qatar using "questionable eligible players ' competition is always good, we should be at peace with just doing things our way, regardless if rival countries take advantage of the rules.

Are we really so paranoid with Qatar and Cambodia? Really now

Why are you so addicted to defending FIBA? They are not perfect for sure. If people have criticism let them have their peace.

Not at all the point , point is its actually beneficial to Gilas to have better competition regardless if the rules are flawed for others to take advantage off. Asia is still the the weakest zone , despite countries taking advantage of the rules, improve competition is OK

I would disagree. Most player development occurs outside Gilas. We can practice all we want and upset some teams but those are upsets for a reason. At the end of the day player development is really on the mother teams.

Not siding with anyone. Just looking for possible reasons for his exemption.

I agree , player development is mainly done by mother teams full time ( not 2 week FIBA tournament)..
my point about better competition in the region, is it's better to bench mark vs legitimate size and skilled players like the Cambodian team full of Americans , than dominating small South East Asian teams.

That's a good perspective and approach, there is no point in arguing justification if a player is trully a national local or not, that's really irrelevant. We're not in a debating competition
but to know what are the different reasons for FIBA exempting player as a local, reality also is while we may know alot about the general background of a player, for each unique case, we really don't have access to all the records, evidence and information. Some info are private details
 
Abassi can attack webster defense, gilbeck already blocked 4 shots of tb.you just need effort
 
You will see breakout scoring by guys we "checked" in moa

But NZL only shoots 21% while CT is shooting better at 36%. If this continues and NZ won't use their height and heft advantage it might be a close game. Rebounding also in favor of NZ
 
Cohesion issues and no practice time is actually glaring for this Kiwi team in the Taiwan game, low energy and poor communication is keeping the game close. I don't see how gilas wouldn't be able to beat them more decisively in a rematch if they stick to the same last minute hugot system. They remind me of the 2019 gilas team

NZ will just iso with Corey Webster if they face a more reactive and less experienced Filipino team and pull a Dominican Republic on us. I noticed they are more accustomed with pinoy style ball than the less individualistic styles that teams like Korea employs(which Taiwan is alike with).
 
Taiwan guards just having their way with NZ's defense. Their guards are actually penetrating well without 2 bigs clogging the paint.
