MANILA, Philippines – Barangay Ginebra bought Japeth Aguilar more time for his keenly awaited return as it leveled the PBA Govenors’ Cup finals at 1-1 after aWith the victory, the best-of-seven series is guaranteed to last at least until Easter Sunday or April 17, giving Aguilar a slightly larger window to come back after missing their past five games due to a calf injury.

Before his injury, Aguilar had been one of the more dominant Ginebra players as he averaged 23.6 points, 7 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks in their quarterfinals conquest of twice-to-beat TNT. “If he can get on the floor and if he feels good, he is a huge, huge impact player. He changes the way we defend. He gives us versatility in terms of what we can do offensively,” Cone said.

The high-flying big man said he is aching to finally see action and make life easier for Christian Standhardinger and Justin Brownlee, who share the responsibility of protecting the paint for Ginebra since Aguilar got hurt.
