Bolts 93, Phoenix 86

Jason Brickman delivered a PBA breakout game and the Meralco Bolts just pounced on Phoenix Fuel Super LPG’s depleted lineup to pull off a 93-86 win in the PBA Season 50 Commissioner’s Cup at the Ynares Sports Center in Antipolo last 21 March.

From a mere three-point game in his PBA debut, Brickman raised the level of his game notches higher, helping the Bolts pull away from a 77-all count enroute to a follow-up to a 109-88 rout of the Converge FiberXers three days before.

Is The Bolts Facing A Point Guard Dilemma?

Some people call it a logjam. Others call it a loaded backcourt. A few will call it a quarterback competition. However they call it, one thing is clear. The Meralco Bolts have three starter-caliber point guards on its roster.

Veteran Chris Banchero has been a starter that stirred the team to several success in the last five years, Aaron Black is one of the consistent contributor since the team drafted him in 2019, and Jason Brickman, also known as the "Asian (John) Stockton" brings high-level passing, decision-making, and experience to the Bolts.

Bolts Felt The Benefit From The Javee Mocon Trade

The Meralco Bolts was hoping that Javee Mocon will rekindle his PBA career after they acquired the veteran forward in a recent trade with NLEX.

Coach Luigi Trillo describes Mocon as a 'good kid' who he had admired from a distance since his college days with the San Beda Red Lions in the NCAA.

Bolts 109, FiberXers 88

The Meralco Bolts showed no signs of any rust as they turned on full power en route to a runaway 109-88 opening victory over Converge in the PBA Season 50 Commissioner’s Cup at Ynares Center in Antipolo last 18 March.

Import Marvin Jones joined forces with red-hot CJ Cansino and the ever-reliable Chris Newsome at the tip of the Bolts’ assault to turn the game around and win big after trailing by nine in the first.

Meralco Taps 7-Footer Marvin Jones As Its Import

Meralco has already abandoned its plans to tap the controversial Ismael Romero as its import for the PBA Commissioner’s Cup.

The Bolts announced on Saturday the signing of Marvin Jones for the midseason conference after Romero’s status dimmed following an incident in the Dubai Invitational Basketball Tournament.
