Taylor finished with a double-double of 20 points and 24 rebounds, while Mamuyac added 17 points, five rebounds and two assists to power the Elasto Painters of coach Yeng Guiao to a 2-1 win-loss record.

Mamuyac, who was named as “Best Player of the Game” scored all his 17 points in the second half for the Elasto Painters, who dropped their openng assignment to NLEX (90-96) before winning over Barangay Ginebra ( 93-71).

Mamuyac, who was not fielded in by Guiao against Ginbra, also went a perfect 9-of-9 from the free throw line.

Taylor also had three steals and two blocks for another all-around game.

Beau Belga and Andrei Caracut also stepped up big for Rain or Shine, finishing with 12 points each.
