In a strategic move, TNT Tropang Giga executed their plan to stifle Beau Belga, holding him to just 5 points as they secured a 116-99 victory over Rain or Shine in the PBA Philippine Cup quarterfinals.
Despite Belga’s impressive season performance, TNT’s defensive focus on him limited Rain or Shine to under 100 points for only the second time in the tournament.
TNT’s Calvin Oftana led the offensive charge with a game-high 32 points, propelling his team to their highest-scoring output of the conference.
The Tropang Giga’s cohesive performance left Rain or Shine struggling to keep up, setting the stage for an intense series in the best-of-three quarterfinals.
