Gilas Pilipinas is all set to play against Italy in the 2019 FIBA World Cup in China, and President Duterte is there to root for them.

In a series of tweets by coach Allan Gregorio, the President is seen visiting the national team's dugout in an effort to uplift the team's spirits before they take on Italy.

"Mabuhay ang Gilas, mabuhay ang Pilipinas," said Duterte while entering the dugout.

The gesture was warmly received by the team, whose members shook hands with the chief executive.

"It's never too late to dream. We'll be praying for you. Basta ibigay n'yo, whatever it is, basta para sa inyo, nandito ako," said Duterte in a video shared by Senator Bong Go.
