Quentin Millora-Brown recognized as a local by FIBA, SBP confirms
It's official: Quentin Millora-Brown is classified as a local by FIBA. The Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas (SBP) confirmed the development on Friday. "We're pleased with the update from FIBA because a player of his size and skill can make a positive impact for Gilas Pilipinas Men," SBP president Al Panlilio said in a statement. With this development, Millora-Brown can now be included in the lineup of locals for the Philippine national team. Earlier, national team head coach Tim Cone said Millora-Brown's addition would be exciting if his status were confirmed. Millora-Brown's name had been floated as a possible addition to the national team even before the Philippines' stint in the FIBA Asia Cup. He also played for the Macau Black Bears in a tune-up game against Gilas Pilipinas ahead of the tournament. Born in the United States, the 6-foot-10 Millora-Brown is the grandson of a Filipino doctor. In 2024, he helped lead the University of the Philippines Fighting Maroons to the UAAP Season 87 men's basketball title. —JKC, GMA Integrated News
