San Miguel leaned on another big third-quarter barrage to repeat against the free-falling Converge, 126-114, and return to its winning ways in the PBA Season 50 Governors’ Cup, Wednesday night at the SMART Araneta Coliseum.

What was a tightly contested ball game then turned into a snoozefest afterward as SMB vented all its ire on the FiberXers, as they were coming off a tough 93-89 overtime defeat to Kim Aurin and TNT last Saturday in Pasay City.
They improved to 5-2 in the process to stay at second in Group A as the opposition spiralled down to its fourth successive loss, dropping to 3-4.
