“Kailangan namin dobleng paghahanda, kasi hindi na kami puwede ng matalo sa MMDA dahil kapag natalo kami, laglag kami sa semifinals na hinahangad namin. Must-win kami sa MMDA. Kailangang doblehin namin ang kayod para manalo kami doon,” said Judiciary coach Dennis Balason.

Judiciary’s Don Camaso protects the ball away from his defender in this UNTV Cup game. The Magis will try to secure a semifinal slot on Sunday against the MMDA Black Wolves. 

The Magis suffered their second loss at the hands of the AFP Cavaliers on Jan. 15, 80-72.

“Mag-eensayo ulit kasi galing nga sa bakasyon, medyo nagkaroon ng lapses. So this coming Sunday sa MMDA, siguro todo preparasyon ito at talagang gagawin naming lahat para makapasok kami sa semifinals,” said Balason.

The MMDA Black Wolves are at the bottom spot, alongside the NHA Builders with four games won and 5 games lost.

The battle between Judiciary Magis and the MMDA Black Wolves  will be aired live on UNTV, with live streaming via untvweb.com. 

The Bureau of Customs Transformers take on the AFP Cavaliers at 5 p.m.

The top two teams at the end of the second round will automatically advance to the semifinals, while teams from 3rd to the 6th places will battle in the quarterfinals.
