It looks like Mighty Sports’ participation in the Dubai International Basketball Tournament will be more than just a comeback tour for former Lakers star Lamar Odom.

The team is looking to be highly competitive this time.

The Philippines’ representative to the tournament has surrounded the veteran Odom with a solid cast of stars, including well-loved Barangay Ginebra import Justin Brownlee and UAAP standouts Juan Gomez de Liaño of UP and Santi Santillan of La Salle.
