After a slow start to the 2018 Asian Games, Jordan Clarkson and the Philippines ended the tournament on a high note after routing the Syria national team, 109-55, on Friday in Jakarta, Indonesia.
The win also sealed a fifth place finish for Gilas Pilipinas, which is an improvement over their seventh place finish at the 2014 Asian Games in Incheon, South Korea. In fact, it was also the country's best showing at the event since 2002 when they placed fourth in Busan, South Korea.
