Rain or Shine and Blackwater will officially put a cap on what has been an eventful elimination round in the PBA Season 49 Governors’ Cup.

While playoff seedings are already set, both teams have plenty to play for as they aim to finish the elims on a strong note.

Rain or Shine, boasting a 7-2 record, has already secured the no. 1 seed in Group B. 

However, a win in this game would tie them with TNT for the best overall record in the Governors' Cup, giving the Elasto Painters additional momentum heading into the quarterfinals.

Blackwater, meanwhile, enters with a 4-5 record and is already out of playoff contention. Even if they win and tie NLEX at 5-5, the Bossing will miss the postseason due to a head-to-head tiebreaker.


Nevertheless, Blackwater will be determined to end their campaign on a high note and put up a strong fight against the top-seeded Elasto Painters.

Though the game has no direct playoff implications, Rain or Shine will look to keep its winning ways alive, while Blackwater seeks to play spoiler and finish their conference with pride.

Tip off for this game will be at 7:30 p.m. Monday from the Ninoy Aquino Stadium.
