The Tropang Giga currently holds a 3-0 record in Pool A for a tie at the top with fellow unbeaten Platinum Karaoke.
The two teams dispute the no. 1 spot on the final day of the eliminations Sunday, though both are already assured of a berth in the knockout stage along with the Purefoods TJ Titans (2-2).
TnT’s 5-on-5 team just recently bagged the Philippine Cup championship by making short work of Magnolia in the finals, 4-1.
Its 3x3 side is currently on track of duplicating the same feat.
The Tropang Giga, handled by lady coach Mau Belen, earlier disposed Limitless Appmasters, 21-9, in their first outing as Vosotros took care of offense with 12 points.
Then they extended their mastery of the Purefoods franchise by outplaying the Titans at half-court, 20-16, before capping Day 1 of the opener with a 21-18 win over winless Zamboanga Valientes in the final match of the hectic 17-game schedule.
De Leon finished with 10 points and hit the long ball to claim the victory.
