Alaska’s Abueva suspended for 1 game

MANILA, Philippines – The PBA on Tuesday suspended Alaska’s do-it-all forward Calvin Abueva for elbowing Ginebra guard Chris Ellis during their PBA Governors’ Cup game last Sunday.

Abueva has been suspended for one game after hitting Ellis with an elbow to the face just as he was about the get up following a scramble for the ball in the fourth quarter.

The energetic Abueva has also been slapped a P22,000 fine for the act.

The Aces went on to defeat the Kings in overtime, 109-100.

Abueva will serve the suspension during the Aces’ match against TNT on Friday in Antipolo.
