MANILA, Philippines – Filipino-American playmaker Ethan Alvano found his mark from beyond the arc as the Wonju DB Promy cruised to an 82-70 win over Dave Ildefonso and the Suwon KT Sonicboom in the Korean Basketball League (KBL) on Thursday, March 23.
Alvano sank four of his six attempts from three-point land to wind up with a team-best 20 points to go with 5 rebounds, 6 assists, and 3 steals for the streaking Wonju, which secured its fourth straight win for a 21-30 card.
