NLEX secured at least a playoff for a PBA Commissioner's Cup quarterfinals berth after defeating Hong Kong Eastern, 94-76.

The Road Warriors, who were once on the brink of elimination with a 3-6 record, now hold a 6-6 win-loss card.

Despite securing a playoff spot, Head Coach Jong Uichico emphasized the importance of seizing every opportunity, stating, "We'll take this, basta may tsansa kami."

NLEX's entry into the quarterfinals still depends on the outcomes of other games, specifically the Magnolia versus Meralco match.

A win by Meralco against Magnolia would automatically give NLEX an outright quarterfinals spot.

Player Robert Bolick expressed determination to not let go of the opportunity, especially after their challenging stretch in the conference.
