KaTropa head coach Nash Racela said Rice, son of former National Basketball Association (NBA) shooter Glen Rice, Sr. who won a title with the Los Angeles Lakers, could be activated in their next game. Their game is different, but Rice is more explosive than Craig,” added Racela. The younger Rice is measured six feet and four inches and played for the Washington Wizards in the NBA. The 26-year-old Rice last played for the NBA D-League with the Rio Grande Valley Vipers in 2014 and 2015 seasons where he averaged 20.5 points, 6.1 rebounds and 4.0 assists in 23 games. Craig was not a bad reinforcement as he averaged 21.7 points, 16.7 rebounds and 6.7 assists while leading KaTropa to two wins in three matches.
