Cone expects Sotto to hold his own in OQT

(UPDATE) GILAS coach Tim Cone is confident that young big man Kai Sotto has the skills and the experience already to hold his own as the national side plays in the FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament (OQT) in Riga, Latvia from July 2-7.

Even at a tender age of 21 years old, the American mentor said he's impressed with the fact that Sotto already gained the experience after playing against bigger and stronger Australian players in the NBL, along foreign imports in the Japan B.League.
