KEVIN Quiambao made sure that Goyang Sono Skygunners will head to the Fiba break on a high after winning back-to-back games in the 2025-26 Korean Basketball League (KBL) season this past week.
The Gilas Pilipinas star fired 17 points in Goyang's 85-74 win over Busan KCC Egis at Busan Sajik Gymnasium on Thursday. He drilled three three-pointers, as well as grabbing four rebounds, three assists, and one steal as the Skygunners moved up to 7-10.
That more than atoned for Quiambao only having four points in Goyang's 93-82 road win over Wonju DB Promy on Tuesday.
Alvano redeems self
Despite his 2-of-9 shooting, the former La Salle star did haul down 11 rebounds and dish out eight assists in the conquest.
Ethan Alvano put up 15 points, seven assists, and one rebound in the Promy loss, but was able to make a quick turnaround in their 84-79 home win over Seoul Samsung Thunders on Thursday when he had 26 points on five triples, to go with 10 assists, eight boards, and six steals
Justin Gutang got seven points, 10 assists, six rebounds, and three steals in Seoul's 10th loss in 17 games.
JD Cagulangan also made sure that he ended the week with a triumph, aiding Suwon KT SonicBoom to a 68-62 road win against Anyang Jung Kwan Jang on Wednesday.
He ended up with eight points, three boards, and one assist in this game to push Suwon up to 9-8 after his duel against the Red Boosters' Rhenz Abando, who only had two points and four rebounds.
Cagulangan and the Sonicboom redeemed themselves from an 85-83 heartbreaker to Seoul SK Knights at Jamsil Student Gymnasium on Monday where the former University of the Philippines playmaker uncorked 22 points, six assists, five rebounds, and two steals.
Arvin Tolentino did not play in that game, but was a presence in the Knights' 88-68 rout of Ulsan Hyundai Mobis Phoebus on Wednesday at Dongcheon Gymnasium. He got nine points and three rebounds as Seoul SK improved to an 8-9 record.
Migs Oczon has now sat out the last eight games for Ulsan (6-11).
Meanwhile, Busan took a 94-93 squeaker over Daegu KOGAS Pegasus on Tuesday.
William Navarro sat out this game, too, for Busan (9-7), while SJ Belangel's 16 points, seven assists, and two boards were in vain as Daegu slipped to 4-12.
