MANILA, Philippines – Barangay Ginebra San Miguel import Orlando Johnson is doing well a day after being rushed to St. Luke’s Medical Center in Bonifacio Global City for hitting his head during his team’s loss against the San Miguel Beermen on Sunday, May 31.
According to Johnson’s agent, Sheryl Reyes, the import was given a CT scan for a possible concussion or other ailments, but tests came back negative.
