Richard Esguerra, ABS-CBN Sports</figcaption></figure></div>MANILA, Philippines—Columbian Dyip guard Jerramy King is set to miss at least two months after suffering a right-knee injury in his team&#x27;s PBA Philippine Cup game against San Miguel Beer last week.King sustained the injury during the second quarter of the game, which Columbian won 124-118. He kept playing, finishing with 7 points and 8 rebounds, but could no longer walk after the game. He was eventually diagnosed with a posterior cruciate ligament tear.&quot;It&#x27;s not that bad,&quot; King said on Wednesday, after watching his team lose to Phoenix, 108-98. &quot;Two to three months is OK.&quot;&quot;I&#x27;ve heard a lot worse, like ACL (tears). I&#x27;m just glad it&#x27;s my PCL,&quot; he added.Nevertheless, King&#x27;s absence is a huge blow for Columbian Dyip, especially as the guard is coming off a solid year that saw him average 14.8 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 2.9 rebounds per game. He was expected to be a major contributor for the Dyip this year, but is now set to miss the bulk of the All-Filipino Conference.&quot;It&#x27;s a tough injury,&quot; he said. &quot;I was a candidate for Most Improved (Player of the Year), and I&#x27;ve been playing well.&quot;&quot;But everything is in God&#x27;s hands, and if this is the position I need to be in, then I just try to stay positive and come back stronger,&quot; King added.In the meantime, he vows to keep showing his support for Columbian.&quot;I want to be a part of it as much as I can,&quot; said King. &quot;It&#x27;s too bad because of my injury, but I&#x27;m gonna do everything to help the team, stay and be a leader for the young guys. We&#x27;re a young team, so I will just try to stay positive.&quot;For more sports coverage, visit the <a href="http://sports.abs-cbn.com">ABS-CBN Sports website</a>.
