As heart-breaking as the 91-point (52-143) beatdown that the Gilas Pilipinas women's squad suffered against powerhouse China in the FIBA Women's Asia Cup opener on Monday, Ella Fajardo said that the Philippine women's basketball team has more to show and vowed to bounce back strong in the tournament.

"Coach (Pat Aquino) said that we played our hardest, but I know for a fact and I can speak on behalf of the team that we have more to bring," said the 5-foot-6 Fajardo, who made her PH seniors team debut on Monday against China.
