MANILA, Philippines — Filipino teen sensation Kai Sotto and the rest of his Ignite squad will get their baptism of fire in a planned NBA G League bubble tournament in November or December.
Ignite, the G League select team comprised of the world’s top prospects, will see action against squads composed mostly of undrafted players and other prospects, according to The Athletic’s Shams Charania.
The short tourney will serve as preparation for Ignite’s official debut in the 2020-2021 NBA G League Season that has been pushed back due to the pandemic.
