It was the Tropang GIGA's second straight win since beating San Miguel, 96-81, Wednesday.

Ginebra fell to 3-3, losing their last three games even as TNT climbed to 4-4.

"Ryan is in our team because of his defense, that's his main contribution to us. Last time, he defended against Orlando Johnson and tonight against Justine Brownlee," said the TNT coach.

"Every time he makes a three-point shot or any other production is a bonus... That's the kind of player he is. He's always ready."

Justin Browlee led Ginebra with 25 points.
