Wondering why Terrence Romeo was missing in action in Terrafirma's loss to Ginebra in the PBA Season 49 Philippine Cup?
Terrence Romeo sat out Terrafirma’s 101-80 loss to Ginebra in the PBA Season 49 Philippine Cup on Wednesday, April 23.
It turned out, a case of fever forced the Dyip star to miss the team’s first game after the Holy Week break.
According to a report by courtside reporter Bea Escudero, Romeo no longer reported to the team’s practice after Easter Sunday because of the said illness.

Without Romeo, the Dyip were simply overpowered by the debuting Gin Kings at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
Ginebra zoomed to a 30-17 start and continued to pounce as the shiort-handed Dyip struggled to recover.
But with another break, Romeo will have time be able to recover and suit up for Terrafirma in its next game against Magnolia at the Ynares Center in Antipolo on May 4.
