SEVEN-FOOT-THREE Kai Sotto has been cleared to play for Gilas Pilipinas, raising the prospect of a twin-tower combo with June Mar Fajardo which has coach Tim Cone excited.

The big man was placed on concussion watch by the Japan B.League after being hit in the head during the Koshigaya Alphas’ 80-72 win over Yokohama last week.
