BRANDON Ganuelas-Rosser’s first game for TNT against Barangay Ginebra after recovering from an ACL injury was a short one.
Ganuelas-Rosser was thrown out of the PBA Philippine Cup game with 4:13 left in the first quarter for an elbow to the head area of Troy Rosario.
The incident happened while Ganuelas-Rosser was boxing out Rosario during a free throw attempt.
Rosario dropped to the floor on his back for several seconds following the elbow to the face.
Ganuelas-Rosser was playing his first outing for the Tropang 5G against their finals opponent Gin Kings over the last two conferences.
The former No. 1 draft pick returned to action recently after sustaining an ACL injury during the 48th Season Philippine Cup last May 2024, and was out during the last two times that TNT faced Ginebra in the finals.
It was a frustrating night for Ganuelas-Rosser, who got two quick fouls in the game and played for just three minutes and 21 seconds, scoring two points.
