PBA: NLEX puts pedal to the metal to beat Magnolia | Highlights

NLEX had no intention on stepping on the brakes as the Road Warriors rolled past Magnolia, 112-105, in the PBA Season 50 Commissioner’s Cup.

Import Cady Lalanne led NLEX’s balanced attack with 24 points, which he spiked with 11 rebounds, two assists, a steal, and three blocks despite being saddled by foul trouble.

Schonny Winston, Robert Bolick, and and JB Bahio chipped in 14 points apiece for the Road Warriors, who gained a share of the lead with Terrafirma and Phoenix at 2-0.

Rookie LJay Gonzales also had a breakout game with 13 points, seven rebounds, three assists, and two steals as NLEX kept the Hotshots winless in two games.

Like most sportswriters, Jan Ballesteros once dreamed of becoming a professional hooper. But he learned the hard way that it’s not for everyone.

He continues to be involved in the sport he loves, but this time as a member of the PBA Press Corps. Aside from primarily covering the PBA, he is also assigned to cover Gilas Pilipinas.
