Biñan drubs Imus for 3rd straight win
MANILA, Philippines — Biñan extended its winning run in the MPBL (Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League) Sixth Season with an 84-67 trouncing of Imus Agimat VA Drones on Wednesday at the Batangas City Coliseum.
Other games saw Davao Occidental subdue Muntinlupa, 82-66, in the opener and Batangas thwart Rizal XentroMall, 70-63, in the nightcap.
Now known as Biñan Tatak Gel Beast Motorcycle GameX, the Lagunenses surged ahead, 38-24, at halftime and never yielded control to notch their third straight victory in as many starts.
Jimboy Estrada led Biñan with 19 points, four rebounds and three assists, followed by Jaymar Gimpayan with 14 points, 13 rebounds, two steals and two assists.
Robbie Manalang also shone for Biñan with 11 points, two assists, two rebounds and two steals.
With Biñan in control, coach Boyet Fernandez was able to field homegrown actor Ronie Alonte, who chipped in three points in 6 minutes and 14 seconds of action.
Imus dropped to the cellar at 0-5 despite four players contributing double figures. John Rey Sumido posted 18 points, Luis Tapenio 11, Russelle Ariban 10, and Fil-Am Richard Popovic 10.
Unlike Binan, Batangas needed to work hard in the fourth quarter to repel Rizal.
