Valiant,
Davies
clash for crown
TKP CUP BEST-OF-THREE
FINALS START TONIGHT
It took a solid defensive effort from Davies Paint-Probac late in the game to dethrone BBC in the 7th Tan Kek Pin Cup Memorial Basketball Tournament.
Deeply motivated by a string of losses against BBC, Probac finally prevailed, 93-92, Wednesday night and clinched a place in the best-of-three finals, where it will meet pre-tournament pick Valiant Bank.
Kirk Tupas reserved his best for last, translating two
steals into to two breakaway lay-ups to key Davies' victory at the Po
Hang Gym of Bacolod Tay Tung High School.
