The Magnolia Hotshots are in the critical part of their playoff race in the PBA Commissioner's Cup.
The Magnolia Hotshots face a critical test as they take on the Hong Kong Eastern on Sunday in the PBA Commissioner’s Cup at the Ynares Center in Antipolo.
Tip-off is set for 5:00 p.m.
Sitting at 4-6, the Hotshots are locked in a three-way race with San Miguel and NLEX for the final playoff spot in the PBA Season 49 Commissioner’s Cup.
With both San Miguel and NLEX already securing their fifth wins, Magnolia must deliver a victory to stay in contention and keep its postseason dreams alive.
Magnolia enters the game with a bit of momentum after a hard-fought 110-104 win over Phoenix.
Zavier Lucero, Mark Barroca, and import Ricardo Ratliffe were instrumental in that triumph, and their leadership will be crucial as the Hotshots face an Eastern squad that holds a strong 7-3 record and is aiming to solidify its own playoff position.
