Terrafirma star sniper Juami Tiongson erupts for 30 points on 6 threes as the Dyip earn a win over the Meralco Bolts in an import-laden conference for the first time in 6 years. PBA

ANTIPOLO, Philippines – The Terrafirma Dyip broke a 12-game losing skid in PBA import-laden conferences against the Meralco Bolts with a 96-88 stunner in the 2023 Governors’ Cup at the Ynares Center in Antipolo City on Saturday, January 28.

Coming off a small 72-67 lead early in the fourth quarter, Terrafirma found a much-needed spark off some stellar spurts of pressure defense and broke away with a 14-2 blitz, ending with consecutive triples from Alex Cabagnot and Tiongson for the 86-69 gap with 7:53 left to play. “We had a good start, then in the second and third quarters, I really pushed them,” said Terrafirma head coach Johnedel Cardel in Filipino. “I told them, if I needed to slap them to wake up, I would, and it happened. But I didn’t slap them.”

Meralco import KJ McDaniels came one rebound shy of his third straight 20-20 game, settling for 29 points, 19 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals, and 2 blocks. Chris Newsome scored 13, while Aaron Black tallied a big 12-point, 12-rebound double-double with no turnovers.
