Meralco aiming to restore power
Meralco and Converge are aiming for a swift recovery in the PBA Season 49 Philippine Cup as they face different opponents on Sunday, April 13.
The Meralco Bolts, currently holding a 2-1 record, are seeking to rebound after their first loss of the season against the San Miguel Beermen.
Chris Newsome, who dropped 27 points in a lost cause, Kurt Reyson, Aaron Black, Raymar Jose, and Cliff Hodge vow to carry the Bolts back on the right track.
Converge, also looking to bounce back from a previous loss, will compete against Blackwater, while Meralco is scheduled to play against Phoenix.
However, Meralco's big men Raymond Almazan and Brandon Bates will have their hands full with the return of Phoenix Fuel Masters' Jason Perkins.
