TNT Triple Giga shoot for Leg 3 of PBA 3×3 Season 3 Second Conference
TNT seeks another feather to its cap — a league-first three straight leg triumphs — as the Leg 3 of the PBA 3×3 Season 3 Second Conference unwraps today (Oct. 30) at the Ayala Malls Fairview Terraces.
The Triple Giga dominated the conference’s opening legs at the expense of Cavitex and Terrafirma to get a shot at the “three-in-a-row” feat that had eluded them before. The multi-titled franchise had previously won thrice in the Third Conference of Season 1 and First Conference of Season 2 but not consecutively.
Almond Vosotros, Gryann Mendoza, Ping Exciminiano and Chester Saldua are back from last week’s triumphant campaign to try and get this done this time.
Top-seeded TNT opens its quest against Pioneer Elastoseal and the Braves in Pool A.
A fired up Dyip crew of Andre Duremdes, Jordan Rios, Shaq Alanes and Jeremiah Taladua looks to sustain the charge from its franchise-best runner-up finish as it tangles with Meralco and San Miguel Beer and NorthPort in Pool B.
Leg 2 third-placer Pioneer Elastoseal, meanwhile, dukes it out with Blackwater, Ginebra and Purefoods in Pool C.
The 11 teams engage in a spirited chase for two berths to the quarterfinals from Pool A and three berths to the KO rounds each in Pools B and C. — Olmin Leyba
