The Sting that stung Ginebra
The Philippine Star
|March 21, 2025
Rey Nambatac got TNT coach Chot Reyes' nod to start in Game 3 of the PBA Commissioner's Cup Finals at the PhilSports Arena last Wednesday and didn't disappoint.
It was Nambatac's first start in the Finals. Reyes made him a sixth man in the last two games of the Rain or Shine semifinal series to provide firepower from the second unit. He had the same thing in mind in the first two games of the Finals against Barangay Ginebra.
Reyes, however, had a change of heart in Game 3. Nambatac averaged 12 points in Games 1 and 2 while Brian Heruela was scoreless in two starts. Paying Reyes back for his trust, Nambatac erupted for 24 points, including five of seven triples and registered his highest output in a TNT uniform since joining the Tropa this season. Sting Rey had not scored 20 or more previously for TNT.
