The Petron Blaze Boosters bucked the absence of starting point guard Alex Cabagnot to cruise to a surprisingly easy 90-68 victory over San Mig Coffee in Game Three of the PLDT Telpad Governors’ Cup finals on Wednesday at the SMART-Araneta Coliseum.
Import Elijah Millsap started at point guard for the Boosters in place of Cabagnot, leading the Boosters with 28 points and eight rebounds to take a 2-1 series lead.
“It’s something we tinkered with in the offseason,” said Petron coach Gee Abanilla of his decision to move Millsap to the one-spot with the absence of Cabagnot, who is out with an injured foot. “Medyo maganda naman ang kinalabasan.”
