PBA breakthrough in EASL?

NLEX came in fourth in the Super Eight in 2017 and San Miguel Beer also finished fourth in the Terrific Twelve in 2019. In the 2023 Champions Week, TNT and San Miguel went winless in two games each. And in the inaugural home-and-away season that ended last March, TNT and Meralco failed to make it to the Final Four with both teams winning once in six outings.
