POY Erram is likely out for the rest of Game Two after sustaining an ankle sprain in his right foot in the third quarter of TNT's match-up against San Miguel in the PBA Philippine Cup Finals.
Erram needed to be assisted by TNT staff on his way back to the dugout to get treatment after the injury that occurred at the 9:04 mark of the third while trying to defend SMB big man June Mar Fajardo.

TNT physical therapist Dexter Aceron said Erram is unlikely to return for the rest of the match.
TNT lost Game 2, 98-92, with Erram playing 15 minutes and 19 seconds and had six points, two rebounds, three assists, and three blocks.
After Wednesday’s contest, Erram had to be taken to his car on a wheelchair since he can’t put weight on his right foot.
“Bahay muna. Bukas ako magpapa X-ray,” said Erram.
The TNT big man said it remains unclear whether he can play in Game 3 on Friday at the Smart-Araneta Coliseum.
“Hindi pa sure eh, hindi ko pa ma-apak,” Erram said.
TNT has been hit with injuries during this playoff run in the Philippine Cup. RR Pogoy and Kelly Williams were coming off a hamstring and ankle injuries, and have just came back in the finals.
