BGY. GINEBRA KINGS over AIR 21 EXPRESS, 103-85
Mark Caguioa's return to Barangay Ginebra was made grander by Cedric Bozeman and Allein Maliksi.
With their leader back on the court and providing a big boost with his mere presence alone, the Kings had little trouble disposing off Air21 Wednesday in their PBA Governors’ Cup debut at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
Wearing a pair of protective glasses to protect the eye he injured last March 30, Caguioa scored 15 points, each one of his five baskets lustily cheered on by his teammates.
Maliksi was not to be left out as he added 11 of his 13 in the fourth period tospark Ginebra's runaway win and become one of the key backups to Bozeman's team-high 29 points and game-high 13 rebounds.
The rookie, sidelined since October by a strained lateral cruciate ligament, was simply on fire, with his baseline jumper over two defenders giving Ginebra its first 20-point lead at 87-67.
The win was also fashioned despite the absence of Jayjay Helterbrand, who had to attend the graduation of his daughter in the US, and Eric Menk, who pulled a hamstring in practice and will be out at least two more weeks.
Having had only about eight practices with the team, Caguioa admitted he is just at about 80 percent game-shape and he still needs to take medication for the intermittent headaches his injury brought about.
Zach Graham wound up with 31 points to lead all scorers and also grabbed 12 rebounds, but did not have the same kind of support his former teammate with the Reno Bighorns had as Air21 dropped its opening assignment for the second time in three conferences.
BGK 103 - Bozeman 29, Caguioa 15, Maliksi 13, Hatfield 10, Ababou 9, Cortez 8, Raymundo 7, Wilson W. 6, Wilson J. 3, Labagala 2, Villanueva 1, Maierhofer 0, Canaleta 0.
A21 85 - Graham 31, Ritualo 13, Sena 11, Isip 6, Omolon 6, Jazul 5, Espiritu 4, Sison 4, Bagatsing 3, Hubalde 2, Menor 0, Faundo 0.
QS: 23-18, 45-39, 71-62, 103-85
