MANILA, Philippines-San Miguel Beer brushed off concerns surrounding Terrence Romeo’s hamstring after leaving the team’s PBA On Tour game against Converge on Sunday at Ynares Sports Arena in Pasig City.
Team manager Gee Abanilla said the Beermen opted to let Romeo sit out the rest of their 113-111 overtime loss to the FiberXers after feeling some tightness in his hamstring in the second quarter.
“It’s not that serious, but our PTs (physical therapists) opted to rest him because his hamstring tightened again,” Abanilla told The Inquirer on Monday.
Romeo played eight games during the 2022-23 season due to the same injury, and has been using the On Tour as a way to regain his form following the long layoff.
He had been playing about 32 to 38 minutes during Romeo’s previous four appearances in the exhibition series in order to make him ready for the season-opener in October.
Romeo averaged 21.8 points before San Miguel’s match against Converge.
But the injury concerns may force the Beermen to cut some of the minutes Romeo has been getting in the series.
“I’m sure the coaches have this figured out,” Abanilla said. “Firstly, we have to make sure that he is really good to go and fit to play again, then the coaches will have to decide on his minutes.”
