MANILA, Philippines – The Converge FiberXers climbed out of a 16-point hole and escaped the San Miguel Beermen, 113-111, in the first-ever PBA On Tour overtime game at the Ynares Sports Arena on Sunday, June 18.
Jericho Cruz, who at the time was sizzling hot with 41 points, had just enough time for one last shot, but his catch from a Marvin Lee inbound pass was tapped away by Barkley Eboña before time expired. All this collective effort was enough to put Cruz’s mammoth game for naught, as he finished his 41-point night with a 13-of-26 clip, 6-of-9 from downtown, and 9-of-12 from the line across 47 minutes of action.
Meanwhile, the Terrafirma Dyip denied the Meralco Bolts a late rally to come away with a 107-102 win. Veteran sniper Allein Maliksi paced the Bolts’ loss with a game-high 33 points on 10-of-16 shooting and a near-perfect 6-of-7 from three. Defensive anchor Cliff Hodge exploded on offense with 24 points on an 11-of-14 clip while still delivering the dirty work with 15 boards, 2 steals, and 2 blocks.
