Bol Bol, TNT cruise past San Miguel in dominant PBA Comm’s Cup win

There was hardly any semblance of their fierce titles bouts in the past as TNT outclassed San Miguel, 118-92, in their most impressive win yet in the PBA Season 50 Commissioner’s Cup, Saturday at the SMART Araneta Coliseum.

Many anticipated another epic showdown between the long-time rivals to take place but the Tropang 5G quickly dictated the pace early, jumping to a 35-16 lead after the first which marked the beginning of a lopsided affair all night.

It was a rather disappointing outing especially for the Beermen faithful but the defending conference champions, of course, were all smiles, as they netted their second win in a row after stumbling in their debut against Rain or Shine.

Bol Bol continued his solid play and led TNT once more with 34 points on 50-percent shooting from the field, alongside 18 rebounds in 34 minutes.

Calvin Oftana made 18 points, spiked by three triples, on top of three rebounds and three assists. Brandon Ganuelas-Rosser supplied 13 points and two blocks, while Justin Chua chipped in 11 markers to lead the bench mob.
