Kyle Kuzma interested in playing with Jordan Clarkson for Philippines
NBA star Kyle Kuzma says he would be willing to play for the Philippine men’s national basketball team alongside Filipino-American standout Jordan Clarkson. In his cover story interview with ALL-STAR Magazine, the Washington Wizard said playing for USA Basketball remains his top priority, but if that opportunity doesn’t present itself in the future, he wouldn’t mind rocking the name of the Philippines across his chest with one of his best friends. “I mean, if I didn’t play for Team USA, I mean, I could rock out with JC. That would be cool,” Kuzma responded when asked if he’d be open to play for Gilas.
