Ginebra seeks Brownlee replacement after doping scandal

Barangay Ginebra is searching for a replacement player after Justin Brownlee failed a doping test at the Asian Games.

Brownlee tested positive for Carboxy-THC, which is linked to cannabis use and banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency; he faces potential suspension of up to two years if found guilty.

Team governor Alfrancis Chua confirmed that Ginebra is actively looking into options in case Brownlee misses significant time due to his provisional suspension.

Chua emphasized during a pre-season press conference on Tuesday that the team is waiting for the International Testing Agency's decision before making any further moves.
