The Varsitarian, the official campus publication of UST, made the announcement Friday in a tweet, saying that the information came from Tigers head coach Pido Jarencio himself.

Teng hurt his shoulder in his side's third game of the season, against the NU Bulldogs, when forward Jeoffrey Javillonar rammed into him from behind.

Prior to that, Teng had normed 19 points, six rebounds, 1.5 assists and two steals in two games.

Ironically, UST's next game will also be versus NU, on Saturday, August 24. - AMD, GMA News
