Barangay Ginebra secured an 85-81 comeback victory over Magnolia, boosting their hopes for a twice-to-beat advantage in the PBA Philippine Cup quarterfinals.
Jamie Malonzo’s clutch layup and three-pointer were crucial in spoiling Magnolia’s debut of new acquisition William Navarro.
Ginebra now holds a 6-3 record but still trails teams like Magnolia, NLEX, and San Miguel Beer, making the remaining games critical.
Their next challenge is a tough match against TNT, which recently acquired Jordan Heading in a trade that could help them complete a historic Grand Slam.
Coach Tim Cone remains confident in the team’s continuity and competitiveness, emphasizing the need to bring their best every game.
