The TNT Tropang 5G proved too much for the Titan Ultra Giant Risers in the PBA Season 50 Philippine Cup Friday, Oct. 24.
TNT picked Titan Ultra apart early on to fashion out a 130-92 win in the PBA Season 50 Philippine Cup at the Ynares Center in Antipolo Friday, Oct. 24.
The Tropang 5G simply did everything right in the second period, where they dropped a 40-point bomb for a 62-38 buffer they never relinquished.
TNT thus scored back-to-back victories and gained the solo lead at 3-1.
