“We are in constant touch, and I said hello to him. I asked, ‘Bol, how are you?’ I was expecting him to talk about the injury, but Bol texted me this — verbatim: ‘I’m just disappointed, Coach, that I’m not there with you throughout the playoffs because I really felt we had a good chance to win a championship.’ He’s not thinking about his future or his career; he just regrets not being with us. So I read that message to the guys before the game. And I said, there’s something greater here than just basketball. It’s really about our relationship and our bond with each other. In the end, we gave ourselves a chance to be lucky.” — Coach Chot Reyes
Chris McCullough is very happy and ready to join TNT. He expressed that he is excited to step on the court and start playing, noting that his return feels a bit different but he is just happy to be there to help the team win.McCullough flew in from Taiwan to serve as the replacement import for the injured Bol Bol during the PBA Commissioner’s Cup semifinals.
Magnolia Hotshots player Ian Sangalang shared their electricity bill, joking that Meralco already beat them in the PBA — and now even their electric bill is beating them too.
TNT Tropang 5G has moved beyond just eyeing Chris McCullough—they have officially tapped him as their new import for the ongoing 2026 PBA Commissioner’s Cup. McCullough is stepping in as the replacement for TNT’s previous import, Bol Bol, who suffered an Achilles injury during Game 2 of the semifinals against the Meralco Bolts. This is a familiar face for PBA fans, as McCullough previously led the San Miguel Beermen to the 2019 Commissioner’s Cup championship by defeating the TNT KaTropa.
Khapri Alston was killed in a shooting incident in Dolton, according to reports from FOX 32 Chicago. Alston, 31, played for Terrafirma Dyip during the 2019 PBA Governors’ Cup under coach Johnedel Cardel and alongside rookie CJ Perez. Reports said Alston was at Rucker Cigar Lounge with his girlfriend when a confrontation reportedly led to gunfire. He was later pronounced dead. One person is currently in police custody as authorities continue their investigation. The former Midwestern State University standout averaged 28.5 points and 18.2 rebounds in 11 games for Terrafirma. His family is calling for a full investigation into the incident.
