Tenorio wins PBA weekly plum

Early on, point guard LA Tenorio is showing just how much of an impact he can make as he carried his new team, the Brgy. Ginebra Kings, to back-to-back wins in newly-opened PBA Philippines Cup, thus, earning himself the Player of the Week honors for the period of Sept. 30 to Oct. 7.

Tenorio, in his first outing in a Ginebra uniform against the Global Port, managed just two points but had 10 assists and nine rebounds in helping them ditch the Batang Pier, 110-90.

Against the Governor’s Cup champions Rain or Shine, Tenorio scored five of his 20 points in crunchtime to push the Kings to a close 98-94 victory and give them a 2-0 (win-loss) card. Correspondent Jonas Panerio
