The NorthPort Batang Pier look to start strong in the PBA Season 49 Commissioner's Cup.
The NorthPort Batang Pier are looking to put their disappointing Governors’ Cup campaign behind them as they kick off the PBA Season 49 Commissioner’s Cup against the NLEX Road Warriors Thursday.
After missing the playoffs last conference, NorthPort is determined to start strong this time around, banking on a solid local core and a dynamic new import.
Arvin Tolentino, Jio Jalalon, and Joshua Munzon will once again spearhead the Batang Pier's local attack, providing a mix of scoring, playmaking, and defensive tenacity.
Adding firepower to the roster is import Kadeem Jack. With extensive G League experience, Jack is expected to bring athleticism and versatility to NorthPort’s frontcourt, giving them a valuable edge on both ends of the floor.
Tip off for NorthPort vs. NLEX is 5:00 p.m. live from the Ninoy Aquino Stadium.
