SIMPLY TOO GOOD: Ginebra smashes Blackwater, regains winning ways
Barangay Ginebra bounced back with a dominant 86-63 victory over Blackwater in the PBA Season 49 Commissioner's Cup, improving their record to 6-3.
The Kings controlled the game, particularly in the third quarter where they outscored the Bossing 27-13 to extend a seven-point halftime lead.
Jamie Malonzo made a significant return after a nine-month layoff due to a calf injury, contributing to Ginebra's third-quarter surge.
Ginebra's defense was a key factor, holding Blackwater to a season-low 63 points on 29% field goal shooting, a marked improvement from their previous game.
Justin Brownlee led Ginebra with 18 points, supported by RJ Abarrientos (15 points) and Japeth Aguilar (10 points).
