The TNT-Ginebra tussle is set at 1:50 p.m. in the sixth out of the 13 matches on board in the first day of pool play.

The Kings won the first two legs of the conference, but was denied by the Tropang Giga the distinction of being the first team to win three straight leg titles when they ousted them in the quarterfinals last week, 21-19. TNT proceeded to win the crown by beating Pioneer Elastoseal, 17-13.

The Triple Giga will return the trio of Almond Vosotros, Lervin Flores, and Samboy De Leon, but inserted Ping Exciminiano in the roster in liue of Gryann Mendoza.

The Kings tapped anew Kim Aurin, Ralph Salcedo, and Raphael Cu, and replaced JJ Espanoila with John Ubalde.

As runner up in Leg 3, Pioneer leads Pool B and is joined by Wilcon Depot, Blackwater Smooth Razor, and Northport.

Cavitex, third placer each in the first three legs, banners Pool C together with San Miguel, Purefoods, and Terrafirma.

The Beermen and Titans open hostilities at 10:30 a.m.

The top three teams in Pool B and C will advance on Tuesday’s knockout stage along with the top two teams in Pool A.

Leg champion receives the P100,000 prize purse.
