RJ Abarrientos' 29-point game was flushed down the drain as Ulsan Hyundai Mobis Phoebus bowed to Suwon KT SonicBoom on Tuesday in the 2022-23 KBL season at Suwon KT Arena.
It was a season-high performance for the Gilas Pilipinas gunner who shot 7-of-12 from deep, to go with four assists, two steals, and one rebound.

Rhenz Abando was benched in Anyang KGC's 84-82 win over Goyang Carrot Jumpers at Anyang Gymnasium.
As the Filipino forward rested, four players scored in double figures for Anyang led by Oh Se-keun and Park Ji-hoon, both of which scoring 17 points.
This snapped the home team's two-game skid to climb up to a 17-8 card.
Meanwhile, Justin Gutang returned to action for Changwon LG Sakers in their 101-85 defeat to Jeonju KCC Egis on Monday at Changwon Gymnasium.
