The UAAP Season 86 men’s basketball tournament has seen a lot of sidelined players from all of its eight squads.

Jerom Lastimosa’s full anterior cruciate ligament tear, Gjerard Wilson’s dislocated shoulder, Adama Faye’s back issues, and Steve Nash Enriquez’s dislocated jaw are just among the numerous injuries that almost, if not, all of the teams have to deal with midway through the season.

“All the coaches are really trying to cover these scenarios,” the four-time UAAP champion said during Sunday's post-game, after the Blue Eagles lost to Katipunan rivals University of the Philippines. On the bright side, one player that has returned from his injury was Terrence Fortea who finally stepped foot on the floor after his previous knee issues. That is why the former Gilas Pilipinas coach is hopeful that miracles and guidance from above can help the affected players to get healthy as the squads are now facing higher stakes since they are now all set to compete in the season’s final five games.
