MANILA – After five years, Ray Parks will be returning to the Gilas 12-man lineup, joining the Ravena brothers and a young crew for the FIBA Asia Cup 2022 in Jakarta.

Parks last suited up for Gilas in 2017 at the Southeast Asian Games.

He currently plays for Nagoya Diamond Dolphins, where he averaged 10.6 points per game and averaging 38.7 percent from 3-point territory.

In 2021, as he suited up for Nagoya, Parks said he was open for a call-up to the national team.
