Manila Chooks TM fought hard at the 2021 FIBA 3×3 Montreal Masters but could not catch a break, exiting winless in Pool D on Sunday.
The Manila-based club team bowed in its two matches in pool play, losing to world no. 8 Antwerp, 11-21, and, 16-21, to Edmonton in that order.
The Philippine bet bowed out of the competition at 10th place among 12 competing teams, along with United States’ Omaha with identical 0-2 slates with a point average of 13.5 points.
“We have no excuses. We were not able to execute what we practiced,” ,” said Manila Chooks TM head trainer Aldin Ayo in assessing his team’s performance.
“We as coaches are accountable, especially me, with the result of our campaign,” he added.
