Eighth-ranked Ginebra put an end to its woes with a beatdown of NLEX in the PBA Season 50 Philippine Cup Sunday, Nov. 2.
Ginebra walloped NLEX, 104-74, to check a two-game skid in the PBA Season 50 Philippine Cup at the Ynares Center in Antipolo Sunday, Nov. 2.
The Gin Kings thus got back on track following losses to Meralco and then San Miguel in Dubai.
They improved to a 2-3 mark for a solo hold of the eighth spot while halting the streaking Road Warriors.
