The Bulacan Kuyas-Mighty Sports squad fell to the San Juan Knights-Go for Gold in their second game of the season by an 18-point margin.
San Juan Knights were relentless as they rallied in the first half in full display of their offense and tenacious defense over the Kuyas in a 94-76 victory yesterday night at the Valenzuela Astrodome.
The Mighty Sports-backed Kuyas could only come within 86-72 early into the fourth quarter before losing and leveling its record to 1-1.
Pivotal to the loss was the Kuyas game-high 25 turnovers, 15 of which came from a league-tying record number of steals by the Knights.
Only three Kuyas scored in double digits with Jason Melano scoring 21 and James Martinez and JayR Taganas posting 12 apiece.
The Kuyas look to bounce back in their next match against the Bacoor Strikers on July 12, 2018 at 9:00 PM at the Bacoor S.T.R.I.K.E. Gymnasium.
