Gilas Pilipinas are officially headed to the FIBA Asia Cup 2025 in Saudi Arabia.

 

This after the Tall Blacks clipped Chinese Taipei, 81-64 in their Group B match at the Wolfbrook Arena in New Zealand on Monday, Nov. 25.

The Nationals preserved an immaculate 4-0 win-loss record after a triumphant home stand against the Tall Blacks and Hong Kong at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City last week.

New Zealand sits behind Gilas in Group B play with a 3-1 win-loss record, which is also good for a spot in next year's continental championships.

The Tall Blacks’ win over Chinese Taipei relegated the former to third place with a 1-3 win-loss record.
