MANILA, Philippines — Kevin Quiambao, the newly-minted Mr. Basketball (amateur) awardee at the Philippine Sportswriters Association (PSA) Awards Night, returned to action in the Korean Basketball League (KBL) with a solid performance from a recovery from an ankle injury.
Quiambao fired 14 points on two treys plus four rebounds and five assists although his mother club Goyang Sono Skygunners absorbed a 94-69 defeat to the Anyang Jung Kwan Jang Red Boosters on Tuesday night at the Goyang Sono Arena.
The two-time UAAP MVP suffered a sprained ankle back on Jan. 12 that cut short his highly-anticipated debut.
Quiambao then had six points in almost seven minutes of play before exiting and being at sickbay for more than two weeks.
