MANILA, Philippines–TNT coach Chot Reyes is set to be fined by the


PBA Commissioner’s Office for his postgame outburst that marred his
team’s 94-92 loss to Magnolia on Wednesday at Smart Araneta
Coliseum.
Commissioner Willie Marcial confirmed that Reyes’ actions where he
charged towards the officials table at the end of the match corresponds
to an automatic fine

The league has yet to finalize the exact amount as of posting time.
Players and coaches are prohibited from approaching the officials table.
The most recent who was penalized was Barangay Ginebra’s LA
Tenorio after falling short to Meralco in Game 3 of the Philippine Cup
quarterfinals.

A frustrated Reyes confronted referees and technical officials to protest
the disputed foul called on Calvin Oftana with 4.3 seconds left in the
contest.
The game was tied at 92-all when Oftana was whistled while trying to
take the ball from Magnolia’s Paul Lee while the latter was going for a
shot.

Lee sank both free throws which helped the Hotshots improve to 3-0 in
the Commissioner’s Cup.
Reyes immediately stormed out of the Big Dome after the team’s
postgame prayer and was even seen shouting at the hallway as he angrily
walked into the Green Gate exit.
The Tropang Giga also contributed to their fate after squandering a 13-
point lead against a Hotshots squad that was forced to play with an all-
local lineup following a knee injury sustained by import Nick
Rakocevic.
The loss spoiled an impressive debut by TNT import Cameron Oliver,
who finished with 43 points, 17 rebounds, five assists and two blocks.
Oliver provided a glimpse of what he can do not only for the Tropang
Giga, but possibly for Gilas Pilipinas if plans to make him a naturalized
player will be taken seriously with his perimeter game and knack to
attack the basket.

The Tropang Giga were dealing with the absence of injured players
Jayson Castro, Mikey Williams and Glenn Khobuntin while center Poy
Erram served a one-game suspension.
