Goyang Sono Skygunners head coach Son Chang-hwan provided a reassuring update on Gilas Pilipinas forward Kevin Quiambao, saying his ankle injury was not as serious as initially feared.
Quiambao hurt his ankle during the third quarter of Goyang’s 88-79 loss to the Suwon KT Sonicboom in the Korean Basketball League on Friday after landing awkwardly while defending in mid-air.
The Filipino forward was visibly in pain and signaled for a substitution. He did not return to the court in the fourth quarter.
Despite the concerning scene, Son downplayed fears over the severity of Quiambao’s injury.
“As for Quiambao, it isn’t as serious as expected,” the Goyang coach said in an interview published on Naver Sports.
