The FiberXers wanted to strengthen their top-4 position which will give them good benefits when playoff time arrives while the Fuelmasters will try to protect their 8th-seeded spot and prevent getting eliminated.

The Converge FiberXers are set to face off against the Phoenix Super LPG Fuel Masters in an exciting game at the Smart Araneta Coliseum on Sunday. The FiberXers have already secured a spot in the quarterfinals but are looking to maintain their momentum and aim for a Top Four finish with a twice-to-beat advantage. Meanwhile, the Fuel Masters seek to improve their 2-5 record to qualify for the last eight.

Coach Jamike Jarin emphasized the importance of playing as a collective team, saying, “It’s always been a collective effort… kasi iyun ang culture we’re trying to develop – and ‘yung fighting heart.” He acknowledged that their team is young and may experience growing pains but is happy with their performance and is focused on giving their best in every game.
