Ginebra was the better team Sunday night, March 31, as it prevailed in its 'Manila Clasico' face-off against the Magnolia Hotshots in the PBA Season 48 Philippine Cup.
Ginebra turned to Japeth Aguilar and Maverick Ahanmisi in the final three minutes to put away Magnolia, 87-77, and get back on track in the PBA Season 48 Philippine Cup at the Smart Araneta Coliseum in Cubao on Sunday, March 31.
The Gin Kings quickly erased the memory of their 73-91 beatdown from Meralco two weeks ago as they upped their card to 3-1 for a share of the third sport with NorthPort.
The Hotshots, meanwhile, skidded to eighth after absorbing their first loss following a 106-75 opening game win over Converge.
