The Gilas big man went blank from the field after three tries and only ended up with a point to go along with six rebounds and two assists.
LJ Peak and Jeff Gibbs scored 19 points each but it still wasn’t enough to give the Alphas the win as they dropped to a 1-9 card.
Ray Parks Jr., meanwhile, had his efforts go down the drain in Osaka Evessa’s 96-79 loss to the Ryukyu Golden Kings at Ookini Arena Maishima.
Parks Jr. recorded 16 points, two assists and two rebounds built on a 45.5 percent shooting clip but to no avail as Evessa dropped to a 6-4 record.
AJ Edu, on the other hand, helped Nagasaki Velca defeat the Nagoya Diamond Dolphins, 87-68, at Happiness Arena.
Edu tallied six points, seven rebounds, three blocks and a steal to help Velca improve to 6-4.
