Ogie Menor finally found his groove as the former pro powered Bulacan to an 87-70 drubbing of Laguna to strengthen its playoff bid in the North division of the MPBL Datu Cup at Caloocan Sports Complex.
Menor, the former San Beda Red Lion, who played seven seasons in the PBA, before moving to the United States a few years ago, played his best game for the Kuyas, scoring 13 points, while James Martinez finished with 15.
Convinced by coach Britt Reroma to come out of retirement, Menor has struggled in his first few games back, before his breakout performance last Wednesday night.
“He will be an asset to this team,” said Reroma, whose team improved to 11-6 for fifth spot in their conference.
Later, Paul Sanga knocked down six triples as Caloocan toppled Pampanga, 78-62.
