Rain or Shine Elasto Painters Team News

After a miserable start, the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters are at it again. Yeng Guiao was under heavy fire when his old team opened its Governors´ Cup campaign with four straight defeats, but the last two victories over Terrafirma and Blackwater have partially alleviated the pressure.

While it is true the Elasto Painters won both of their games against cellar dwellers, those wins still count and will do a world of a good to them as they incorporate their new import signing.

There has been quite an interesting development recently with their new foreigner Greg Smith. After having a monster debut with 38 points against the Blackwater Bossing, his new employers were forced to enter their last fixture without his services due to FIBA player clearance issues. In the meantime, the situation has been sorted with Smith returning just in time to tackle the unstoppable Antonio Hester.

Magnolia Hotshots Team News

We knew that the Magnolia Hotshots wouldn´t be the same team without Nick Rakocevic, but their management was in denial until they suffered three consecutive losses at the start of the Governors´ Cup.

It was obvious Eric McCree wouldn´t be a good fit, but with the arrival of the smaller import Antonio Hester they have turned into instant contenders. His physique, explosiveness and former PBA experience have propelled the Hotshots to three straight wins and currently have them sitting mid-table with their eyes set on finishing in top 4.

Rain or Shine Elasto Painters vs Magnolia Hotshots Prediction

Even though the Elasto Painters have only managed to beat two of the weakest teams in the competition, we still think today´s match will be a nail-biter. The Magnolia Hotshots need to have a clear advantage today, but we doubt they will manage to win this matchup by 10+.
