By: Inquirer.net June 02,2017 - 10:12 PM

FOR THE first time since 2014, Ginebra is the top seed.

The Gin Kings cruised to a 94-80 victory over Mahindra to finish the 2017 PBA Commissioner’s Cup with a 9-2 (win-loss) card and secure the number one seed yesterday at Smart Araneta Coliseum.

Justin Brownlee imposed his presence for Ginebra with 22 points, 10 rebounds, and five assists, as the franchise topped an import-laden conference for the first time in 20 years, dating back to its Gordon’s Gin days in the 1997 Commissioner’s Cup.

In the first game, San Miguel toppled GlobalPort, 112-101, to also finish with a 9-2 card and secure the second seed and the last twice-to-beat advantage heading into the quarterfinals.

Charles Rhodes led the Beermen with 34 points.
