The National team delegation arrived in Manila on Monday for the FIBA world cup 2023, where they were welcomed with live music and souvenirs from the hosts.
Organizers made sure there was a beautiful reception awaiting the team at Ninoy Aquino International Airport when the team landed.
The internationals were surprised by the “warm” reception and several of them recorded the scene with their mobile phones.
