During the meeting, Gilas Pilipinas coach Chot Reyes also presented his roadmap in building the men's basketball team for the coming months.

He identified the best players from the PBA, UAAP, NCAA, and professional leagues overseas with the aim of performing in the FIBA World Cup Asian qualifiers, reclaiming the gold medal in the Southeast Asian Games, and competing against the world's best in the World Cup next year.

The PBA has previously confirmed that it will only hold two conferences next season to give way for the national team's preparation for the World Cup. This will give the players three months to build chemistry and familiarity.
