    That's for sure... Even thou they tell 6 months, full recovery expecting within 3 months or so... Koshigawa will tell Kai to focus on rehab and recovery.. so possible return for Gilas will be 2nd window of world cup qualifiers next year, since I don't see him his team will allow him to participate in 1st window of world cup qualifiers in November this year...
    No need to rush him. He's probably the most irreplaceable player in our NT. Without him we won't have the luxury to use our NP slot on a wingman.

    Would we see the return of Ange? Hope they finish "fixing" QMBs passport and he reveals it "soon".

    • Whats important is that we wont rush him and potentially ruin the kid, we know how delicate ACL is specially for big men, anyway its high time Gilas pushes for Ange and possibly QMB..

      • Damn ACL injury is usually career altering, hope Kai recovers

        • this Injury sadly closes the door shut for Kai's NBA hopes, unless he balls out in the Olympics with Gilas I just dont think scouts will be thrilled with his age + injury history

              I'm not super worried

              Pressure is on Edu to fill his shoes.

              Asia Cup 2025 will be harder to win without him.

              First Window of WCQ 2027 should be okay unless we are scheduled to face Australia/NZ.
              I think it is ok to face AUS/NZ during the time of Kai's absence. If we play the percentage, we are likely to lose the game even with Kai, so better to face them early so that Kai can play minimal minutes against teams not named AUS/NZ
              ""failure is not the end but just the beginning of a victorious journey..just keep on dreaming and we will be back on the olympics''''

              • We should be flooding Erika Dy's email or social media account for her to act on Kouame's exemption because Al Panlilio is too incompetent to tie his own shoelaces.

                  Harsh but true, acl injury is a big red flag, we’ve seen a lot of careers end due to acl injuries

                  • since Kai won't be playing for at least a year, I would want him to marry his girlfriend and start producing babies.

                        Maybe this is still not the time for us to have a homegrown yet, sadly. It is like the destiny itself made this happened, can't do something about it.

                        • So, what is the update on the development of Kai's younger brother? I read that when Yao Ming was a kid, Chinese sports doctors measured the size of his knuckles and predicted that he will be really tall. I don't know the accuracy of the science involved but they were correct. And with their prediction they closely monitored and developed Yao.
                          Taulava, Japeth, and Kai should start producing more babies. Their wives are above average in height. Too bad Asi produced girls but he still has time. Japeth should be "robusted" every night so he will have more children. And since Kai has nothing to do but rehab then he should marry his girl. Biology is the key to Gilas supremacy! haha

                            I always wonder those violent dunks that he does could have contributed to his injuries,whenever he dunks so hard with feet up in the air and then he lands hard on the court,that's like 5x of his weight on his feet,legs and knees.His fanatical fans liked him doing that,to dominate and humiliate the guy guarding him,that injury was avoidable if he just dribble to left and use his reach for a layup,he was so low like trying to power himself up over his guard.

                            • Meanwhile Sotto’s contemporaries are in the NBA. Ariel Hukporti and Zach Edey were supposed to be in the 2022 NBA Draft class but deferred. Hukporti had a knee injury and was able to recover.

                              • That injury could have been prevented had he mastered Kareem's skyhook. It's the excessive movement when he is posting up that caused the slip. The skyhook is economical when it comes to the number of moves needed. Of course, you need countless hours practicing to fully master the skyhook which looks simple but requires muscle memory to work.
