May face Jordan Clarkson

Defending champion South Korea breezed past Mongoalia 108-73 for its second straight victory in men's basketball at the Asian Games on Thursday.

Ricardo Ratliffe, a U.S.-born player who acquired his South Korean citizenship in January this year, scored 19 points and grabbed 14 rebounds while only playing in the first half.

If South Korea wins Group A, it will meet the runner-up from Group D, which may well be the Philippines. And they will get a major reinforcement in the form of an NBA player Jordan Clarkson, a Filipino-American guard who has a career-scoring average of 14.1 points per game over four seasons.

"He could give them a jolt and it will put us at a disadvantage," the Korean coach said. "But we'll still prepare hard for that possible matchup and try to get the result that we want."

"He will be dangerous, but basketball isn't a one-on-one game," he said. "I think if we just play our game and not worry about other things, we should have our chance."
