00:00Guilas Pilipinas Center Kai Soto was confirmed unable to play for the February window of the FIBA Asia Cup Qualifiers.

00:09That was after he announced on social media that he was in the ACL tier.

00:14What can his teammates say about the national team?

00:18That's what Tzimei Trapael Bandayrel has to say.

00:23Guilas Pilipinas will not be able to carry the service of 7'3 big man Kai Soto

00:29in the upcoming February window of the FIBA Asia Cup Qualifiers.

00:34That's because he was in the ACL tier in his opponent's game, Koshigaya Alphas

00:40against Mikawa Seahorses in the Japan B-League last week.

00:44This is the sad news that Soto brought to an Instagram post.

00:50Because the big man will be able to reduce Coach Tim Cohn's rotation in Guilas,

00:54Japheth Aguilar will most likely be the veteran in the position left by Soto.

01:00Japheth believes that Soto will be able to overcome this,

01:04especially at the age of 22, he will be able to recover easily.

01:25He will be back strong.

01:27Aguilar is also ready to help his teammates

01:31to make the national team's adjustments to Kai's departure smooth.

01:36My role here is to make sure the young guys,

01:40that's it, my role is to guide them, you know.

01:45Our system, the triangle with Coach Tim is the most important for us,

01:50to execute it properly.

01:54Guilas also has a message for his frontcourt partner, naturalized player Justin Brownlee.

02:01That's definitely a tough blow for the team,

02:05and personally for Kai, I can only imagine what he's going through.

02:10Definitely sending prayers to him,

02:12hoping he can keep his high spirits up,

02:15and just get well soon and get through his injury.

02:19Hope his pregnancy surgery goes well,

02:21and the rehab process and everything goes well.

02:24We all love Kai.

02:26The recovery period for ACL tear is 6 to 7 months.

02:30So, Guilas Pilipinas fans,

02:32you can expect that Soto will be out of action for a long time.

02:36It is still not certain if he will be able to play in the 2025 FIBA Asia Cup,

02:40which will be held in August.

02:42But of course, the show must go on for Guilas Pilipinas.

02:46That's why Coach Cone's assignment is to find out who can replace him.

02:52Rafael Bandayrel for Atletang Pilipino for Bagong Pilipinas.
