Gilas Pilipinas waxed hot from behind the arc to dominate India, 101-70, on Saturday in the 39th William Jones Cup men’s basketball tournament at the Taipei Heping basketball gymnasium in Taiwan.

Matthew Wright led the PH 5’s hot shooting with a perfect 5-of-5 stint from the three-point territory to finish with 19 points while Von Pessumal and Almond Vosotros added 14 points apiece to help Philippines bounced back from a sorry 80-91 loss to Lithuania last Friday and improve its win-loss record to 5-3.
