Alab Pilipinas hopes to display their “pusong palaban” as they fight to extend their ASEAN Basketball League (ABL) semifinals series against the Singapore Slingers on Game 2 this Friday (April 7), which will be aired LIVE from the Baliwag Star Arena in Bulacan on S+A at 8pm with livestreaming on sports.abs-cbn.com.
Alab dropped their first playoff game against the 2016 runner-ups 67-77in Singapore as injuries to Bobby Ray Parks and Jeric Fortuna dampened the debut of former UAAP MVP and Philippine basketball phenom Kiefer Ravena, who scored 16 points.
For Game 2, the second seed Slingers will still be relying on Game 1 top-scorer Xavier Alexander and 2016 MVP Wei Long Wong as they continue to hunt for the elusive title in Southeast Asia’s only professional regional basketball league.
If Alab wins on Friday, a do-or-die scenario will find its conclusion on April 9 at the Singaporeans’ own homefront.
Don’t miss Alab Pilipinas’ fight for survival in the Playoff round against 2016 ABL season runner-up Singapore Slingers this Friday (April 7) at 8pm LIVE on S+A and via livestreaming on sports.abs-cbn.com.
