Biñan wrapped up the week by winning its second home game in the PSL President’s Cup at the Alonte Sports Arena by walloping AO Jikiri Indanan, 85-56, to gain a share of the lead once again with Nueva Ecija.
Despite missing the services of their man up front, basketball legend Marc Pingris, who was sidelined by a sprained ankle, the Tatak Gel proved to be too much against the Kings.
They asserted their dominance inside the shaded lane, scoring 40 points of their total output, 16 more than their rivals.
Biñan also grabbed 43 rebounds as against 26 for AO and its activity in crashing the boards resulted to 12 second chance points.
KG Canaleta once again presided on the team’s offense as he tallied 14 points to go along with his seven rebounds.
Jaymar Gimpayan, filling in the shoes in providing the energy and hustle usually being brought by Pingris, stepped up and produced 13 markers on top of four boards for the Tatak Gel, who booked their second win in three nights at home to gain a share of the lead with Nueva Ecija.
Both the Tatak Gel and the Capitals carry an identical 11-0 slate.
