THE PBA has postponed Saturday’s Commissioner’s Cup games after warning signs were raised as Typhoon Paeng hit Metro Manila and nearby areas.

Heavy rains and strong winds have forced the PBA to postpone the doubleheader at the Ynares Center in Antipolo City pitting Meralco against San Miguel at 4:30 p.m. Rain or shine against Magnolia at 6:45 p.m.

Signal #3 was raised in Metro Manila and Rizal shortly before the PBA announcement was made.

“The PBA cancels its games today at the Ynares Center in Antipolo as weather conditions, roads and traffic may be unsafe and undesirable for our fans and players due to the effects of severe tropical storm Paeng” , the PBA said.

The PBA said it is monitoring the situation before making an announcement on the status of Sunday’s games also scheduled at the Ynares Center.

Magnolia was supposed to face Rain or Shine as it tries to bounce back from its 103-97 loss against Barangay Ginebra that dropped it to second place with a 5-1 win-loss record.

San Miguel (3-3) was going for its third straight win against Meralco (1-5), who according to sources is still supposed to be playing Johnny O’Bryant as their replacement import Jessie Govan is over the limit height

The Beermen beat NorthPort, 104-86, last Wednesday.

Meralco is on a three-game losing streak after a 113-96 loss to Rain or Shine last Saturday. But the Elasto Painters dropped to 3-4 after their 92-83 loss to Phoenix last Wednesday.
