TNT GIGA vs. ALASKA ACES / PBA RESTART/ COURTSIDE HIGHLIGHTS / OCT. 11, 2020

JUST how did RR Pogoy spend his days during the long lockdown? This was the curious question as the Cebuano hotshot sizzled with a career-best 45 points in a spectacular PBA bubble play debut. Pogoy fired 10 three-pointers on an amazing 58-percent clip, the last one forging a 92-all deadlock before Jayson Castro took over as TNT Tropang Giga topped Alaska Milk, 100-95, in the opener of the PBA Philippine Cup restart at the AUF Gym in Angeles City, Pampanga Sunday. "Kumpiyansa lang sa sarili. Pinag-pray ko ito na magagawa ko, and God blessed me," said Pogoy of his huge game fuelling their fightback from 17 down early in the second quarter. Castro had his stellar performance with 28 points, five rebounds, three steals and two assists, helping TNT through despite the sidelining of Rayray Parks (nursing a strained calf) and the ouster of Poy Erram on flagrant infractions.
