Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, July 18) – The Meralco Bolts continue their electrifying start in the 2021 PBA Philippine Cup after beating five-time All-Filipino champions San Miguel Beermen, 93-87, on Sunday at the Ynares Sports Arena in Pasig City.
Chris Newsome bannered the team with 17 points while last season s Rookie of the Year Aaron Black added 14 markers to post a 2-0 start for Meralco.
Meralco head coach Norman Black said winning in the early part of a conference against a heavily-stacked team like San Miguel that has yet to gain its full momentum is a big advantage. You always have to get wins at this point of the season. We don t want to get left behind because it will be a struggle to catch up later. To put San Miguel behind is a big deal for us, said Black.
