LAPU-LAPU CITY — The East Asia Super League Final Four gets a Philippine touch as Rhenz Abando makes a return to see action for the Anyang Jung Kwan Jang in the three-day event at the Hoops Dome here.
The 25-year-old former Gilas Pilipinas stalwart already saw action for the Korean Basketball League side last Sunday against Goyang Sono three months following his harrowing fall in which he sustained multiple injuries.
Abando finished with 17 points, four rebounds, four steals, and three assists in a 92-87 win.
Unfortunately, another Filipino in Juan Gomez de Liaño won't be playing for the other KBL team Seoul SK Knights as he underwent season-ending finger surgery.
The Red Boosters and the Knights are set to clash in the "March Madness" version of the EASL, which has the Philippine Airlines, Dusit Thani Mactan Cebu Resort, and TikTok as official partners and Anta, McDonald's, and Spalding as product partners.
