Black not feeling good on injured knee

“Right now, it’s not really feeling good,” said Black. “I can’t put much weight on it. Praying for the best.” Black exited at the 10:07 mark of the third after banging his knee. He finished with three points, five rebounds, and two assists in 16 minutes of play. “Sabi niya (Black) hindi lang makirot, pero he heard something pop. So we’re praying for AB,” said coach Luigi Trillo during the post-game presser. “We know Aaron will be back eventually. But for now we can’t say really anything. Our prayers are with AB and we’ll see once that MRI comes out.” The possible absence of Black will certainly hurt the Meralco backcourt especially at a time the team is fighting for a place in the quarterfinals. Black is averaging 12.3 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 3.8 assists in 28 minutes of play this conference as part of Meralco’s starting unit. Following the Bolts’ 23-point rout of Magnolia, Meralco improved to an even 5-5 record in a tie for seventh place with Terrafirma. It plays league leader San Miguel in its final outing on Saturday at the Batangas City Coliseum.
