Zambo, Marikina post contrasting wins

/ 05:40 AM July 28, 2018

Veteran playmaker Reed Juntilla sustained his fiery form as Zamboanga-Family’s Brand Sardines inflicted more misery on Pasig with a 92-78 drubbing, while Marikina snapped a three-game losing skid in the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL) Datu Cup at Pasig Sports Center on Thursday.

Juntilla finished with 23 points and three steals for the Valientes, who got off to a strong start following an early surge built on Noy Javier’s three triples in the opening half.

The Valientes dedicated their win to the fire victims in neighboring province Jolo that left 30,000 people homeless.
