PBL: AddMix stays in the hunt for semis seat
Facing outright elimination drew the best out of the AddMix Transformer as they produced the most dominant win in years in the Philippine Basketball League (PBL). Alex Nuyles, Jeff Morial and Terre Guillermo came off the bench and combined for 37 points as the Transformers breezed through a 90-49 victory over Ani-FCA Agrinurture in Saturdayâs PBL PG Flex-Erase Placenta Cup at The Arena in San Juan City.

Scores: AddMix 90 â Nuyles 17, Canada 14, Morial 10, Guillermo 10, Ciriacruz 8, Colina 5, Margallo 5, Amparado 4, Cubo 3, Galinato 2, Ynion 2, Maliksi 2, Alvarez 2, Basilio 0. Ani-FCA 49 â Cagoco 16, Custodio 7, Sena 6, Pascual 4, Luanzon 3, Gelasque 3, Sevilla 2, Pascual 2, Acosta 2, Matias 2, Morales 2, Flores 0, Olocan 0. Quarter scores: 20-15; 40-30; 62-37; 90-49.
AddMixâs defense, which resulted to seven steals, was so suffocating that the Transformers prevented the Cultivators any fastbreak attempt. Ani-FCA also had 20 turnovers, 18 of them in the first three quarters that resulted to a 29-3 advantage in turnover points for Addmix. âWe still have a good shot at the semifinals and what we need to do is to win over Pharex on Thursday and Cossack on our final game. I believe with this performance of my players, we have a solid chance of winning these games," added Austria. Wins are important among contending teams in this single round robin elimination since there will be no playoff and instead ties will be resolved using the quotient system. â GMANews.TV More Videos
