Former Sacred Heart School-Ateneo de Cebu forward Joshua Sinclair continued his breakout party on the international stage as he registered a double-double performance to lead the Batang Gilas Pilipinas past Malaysia, 87-68, in the 2016 SEABA Under-18 Championship on Monday night at the Angkasapura Lanud Hall in Medan, Indonesia.

Sinclair, the former Magis Eagle and Cesafi star who is now with National University, had 14 points and 11 rebounds laced with four assists to help the national youth team win their third game in a row and take a step closer to a berth in the finals.
