EXPECT another explosive show from Ronjay Buenafe as
Burger King goes for a fourth straight win against Dazz ’Sang
Patak Saturday in the 2007 PBL Unity Cup at the Olivarez Sports
Center.
The 6-foot Buenafe dazzled the
crowd and awed his defenders by knocking in 24 points in an
impressive 5-of-8 shooting from 3-point zone besides coming through
with spectacular drives, in a performance that helped Burger King
beat Cebuana Lhuillier Pera Padala, 80-69, last Tuesday.
The Burger King Whoppers and Dazz
Kitchen Specialists collide at 4 p.m. with Buenafe expected to join
forces with JR Quiñahan as they go up against the Reed Juntilla-led
squad.
Clashing in the opening game at
12 noon are defending Harbour Centre and San Miguel-Magnolia, while
Henkel Sista shoots for its first win in four starts against Toyota
Balintawak at 2 p.m. The first two games will be aired on
Basketball TV starting at 5 p.m. while the third game will be
telecast on Sunday beginning at 7 p.m.
Juntilla is leading the league in
scoring after averaging 18.33 points in three games but he will have
to work doubly hard for his points as coach Rene Baena will likely
Buenafe on him.
Baena will be calling the shots
for the Whoppers in the absence of coaches Lawrence Chongson and
Allan Gregorio.
Buenafe is tied for second to
third places with Harbour Centre’s Jason Castro in scoring as both
players normed 17.67. The 6-foot-5 Quiñahan is also doing a great
job after averaging 16 points and rebounds a game.
