In their recent matchup, Negros Hacienderos fell 97-86 to Basilan Steel, extending a difficult stretch for a team that has struggled to establish defensive consistency.
DJ Howe led the scoring with 21 points, while Michael Alvarez added 18 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists. Adven Jess Diputado added 12 points and Flever Dignadice added 10 points, but their poor defense proved costly.
Offensively, the team shot 44% from the field, including 56% from the two point range, but struggled with 24% from the three point range and 53% from the free throw line. Defensively, they controlled the boards 51-47, but their perimeter defense allowed Basilan to convert almost 40% from deep and committed 19 turnovers which caused multiple momentum swings.
The loss therefore reflects more than one poor performance, it underlines the need for sharper perimeter defense, lesser turnovers and improved execution in crucial stretches.
Mindoro Tamaraws suffered a heartbreaking 70-69 defeat to Cebu Greats, falling by just one point in a tightly contested MPBL matchup. The result showed Mindoro’s ability to stay competitive but also highlighted their struggles to execute in decisive moments.
Jhon Jerrick Caspe led the charge with 23 points and 10 rebounds, while Bambam Gamalinda added another double-double through 13 points and 12 rebounds. Jayvee Dela Cruz chipped in 10 points, but their efforts just fell short.
Offensively, Mindoro just shot 27% from the field, including 20% from the perimeter, 36% from the two point range and 67% from the free throw line. Defensively, they matched Cebu on the boards (56-56 rebounds) and dominated offensive rebounds (23-11), but made key defensive lapses when needed the most.
The performance remains encouraging, but Mindoro must improve its finishing and defensive execution against opposing stars if it wants to convert close games into wins.
