Nocum's spectacular play propels ROS over Converge in PBA quarterfinals
Adrian Nocum has been named the PBA Press Corps-Pilipinas Live Player of the Week after his stellar performance in the quarterfinals.
Nocum's exceptional play was crucial in leading Rain or Shine to a semifinals berth for the third consecutive conference.
During the period of February 5 to 9, he averaged 22.3 points, 2.3 rebounds, 3.0 assists, and 2.0 steals, shooting an impressive 62 percent from the field.
His outstanding contributions included a 28-point game in Game 2 and a 25-point output in Game 3, both leading to Rain or Shine victories against Converge.
Nocum's dynamic play has drawn comparisons to former PBA stars Vergel Meneses and Cyrus Baguio, both coached previously by Yeng Guiao.
He was chosen over other strong contenders like Arvin Tolentino, Scottie Thompson, and Poy Erram.
