He was already suffering from the same injury in the off-season and could not fully join Rain or Shine’s practices until about a week before the season started.
The former Smart-Gilas Pilipinas captain’s first pro game with the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters was cut short after aggravating his injury in the second quarter of their match against Petron Blaze Boosters. He played for 6 minutes and scored 2 points and dished out 2 assists.
It was also the debut game of Petron’s 2012 top draft pick Junemar Fajardo. He tallied 9 points, 12 rebounds, and 2 blocks.
Rain or Shine went on to win the game, 102-86, despite losing Tiu to injury. – Rappler.com
