MANILA, Philippines — Amid the emergence of the first “suspect case” of COVID-19 in the PBA bubble, the NLEX Road Warriors went about their business on the hardcourt and finally got their breakthrough. “It’s definitely more difficult than usual to motivate the team (during the skid) because of the circumstances we’re in,” said NLEX coach Yeng Guiao. Defensively, NLEX held Christian Standhardinger to seven markers on a 3-of-6 field shooting. NorthPort’s bid was badly affected by the hamstring injury that forced Sean Anthony out of the game in the first quarter. We did that and we (also) got a big break when Sean Anthony wasn’t able to get back into the game,” said Guiao.
