Games summary

[edit]

Kerby Raymundo scored a career-high 30 points, while Yee added 12 points, including five crucial free throws, in the last two minutes. Purefoods pummeled Red Bull with a 60.9 percent field-goal shooting in the second quarter, and the Giants, nursing a 23–22 edge at the end of the opening period, zoomed to a 53–34 spread at halftime. The Bulls had a fiery chase in the third quarter. They were ahead 97–94 but went scoreless in the last 1:55 of play. Yee canned in two charities off a foul by Villanueva to tie the count at 97-all, and then Raymundo scored on a 15-foot jumper as the Giants surged ahead, 99-97, with time down to 30.9 seconds.
