Its debut spoiled by the Singapore Slingers, Alab Pilipinas guns for a breakthrough victory in the Asean Basketball League when it clashes with the struggling Kaohsiung Truth at Baliwag Star Arena in Bulacan.
Foiled by the Slingers, 66-71, in Biñan, Laguna last Sunday, Alab hopes to come out stronger against the Truth, who are looking to arrest a two-game slide.
The Truth recently tapped former University of the Philippines gunner Mikee Reyes as reinforcement.
“I’m just really excited to continue playing the game I love,” Reyes said.
“I was blessed enough for the Kaohsiung Truth to take a chance on me.” —CEDELF P. TUPAS
