The San Miguel Beermen is scheduled for a head-to-head game against the Blackwater Elite at 7:00 P.M. on February 6, 2019 live from the Mall of Asia Arena.

The Beermen are looking to end their back-to-back defeats this evening while the Elite wanted to avoid getting buried deeper in the standings when PBA resumes at the MOA Arena.

Scoring 24 points and grabbing 14 rebounds in just a game could be considered as great performance for many basketball players but for the five-time Most Valuable Player seems like he’s having an off-night.

That’s the view of June Mar Fajardo when they played versus the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters last February 1.

“Struggling ako. Ako yung tinitignan ng mga teammates ko, pero hindi ko sila na i-lift. Pag pangit ang laro ko, malaki ang chance talo kami,” Fajardo said.

“Kailangan kong bumawi at mag-bounce back,” he added.

Former PBA MVP and SMB’s team captain Arwind Santos sat out on that ROS game due to food poisoning is itching to lead his team to victory.

“Hindi pa naman huli ang lahat. Magre-regroup kami kasi hindi maganda yung talo. Depensa daw. Tignan natin kung maaayos natin next game,” said Arwind Santos

After scoring his season-high of 27 points against the Elasto Painters, Michael DiGregorio got shutdown by Phoenix Pulse Fuel Masters as he only limited to just five points.

In their last outing, Phoenix hammered them hard from the get-go and didn’t give them a chance to make a comeback.

For Elite’s head coach Bong Ramos, he used that opportunity to give more playing minutes for his rookies in order for them to get more feel in the pro-league.

Abu Tratter responded with 24 points and eight rebounds while Paul Desiderio had his first double-figure scoring with 12 markers.
