Converge blasted Terrafirma, 116-87, in the PBA Season 49 Commissioner’s Cup at the PhilSports Arena on Wednesday, Nov. 27.

Impressive in the recently concluded Governors' Cup after pushing San Miguel to its limits in the quarterfinals, the FiberXers picked up from where they left off as they aim for a deeper playoff run this conference.

In the weeks leading up to the opener, Converge acquired the services of former Gilas standout Jordan Heading from the Dyip.

 

Two days ago, Terrafirma also dealt ace Juami Tiongson and Andreas Cahilig to San Miguel for Terrence Romeo and Vic Manuel.

 Romeo and Manuel did not see action, though.

Converge looks to make it 2-0 when it takes on guest team Eastern on Friday, Nov. 29, at the Ninoy Aquino Stadium.
