Best Friends nip ADG
CEBU, Philippines - The Best Friends Forever of team owner Shirley Martin defeated ADG Refrigeration, 81-75, for its fourth win in five games in the Punta Princesa Basketball Association (PPBA) at the Atillo gym in Brgy. Punta Princesa, this city.
ADG took an early 20-13 lead behind the leadership of bull-strong center Kadong Paca and Ronald Libre, but they went ice-cold in the succeeding quarters.
In contrast, the Best Friends Forever suddenly came strong behind the solid defense anchored on ex-SWU Cobra Junard Ciabo and flashy offguard Inting Bacalla. They wrested the driver’s seat, 26-14, and then closed the first half with a 39-34 advantage.
ADG threatened for the last time at 65-67 as the Best Friends proved more consistent with the way they ran their offense.
Speed demon Dondon Cadungog led the Best Friends with 20 points, while Atty. Jun Felicitas added 16 markers and Tito Quiros 10.
The ADG Refrigeration was paced by Keith Dinoy with 21 points, 12 of them in the payoff period.
