BOATWRIGHT LEARNING PINOY CULTURE

MANILA, Philippines: As Bennie Boatwright continues to process his papers to become a naturalized Filipino citizen, the former USC Trojan gets to learn what is the culture of the country.

A story on the Instagram page of the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas (SBP) showed him trying out halo-halo at a local Manila restaurant.

"@benniebuckets enjoying halo-halo," the SBP wrote in their story.

Boatwright, who played for the San Miguel Beermen for the 2023-24 PBA Commissioner's Cup, is in the country to process his process for naturalization in order to play for Gilas Pilipinas.

Should he be naturalized, he will join the likes of Utah Jazz star Jordan Clarkson, Asian Games star Justin Brownlee, Ange Kouame, and many others.
