Marcus Douthit Gets Ok From FIBA!

As far as FIBA is concerned, Marcus Douthit is now as Pinoy as balut.

In a letter to Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas (SBP), the FIBA Sport and Eligibility Committee has recognized Douthit's citizenship and has determined that he is eligible to play for the Philippine national team.

This piece of good news was sorely needed as Fil-Am guard Marcio Lassiter re-injured his back during scrimmages and has been ruled out of the SEABA tournament.
