The crucial victory gave the Cyber Knights the first final slot and a 4-1 lead, while the Lancers will be relegated to play for third place. The USJ-R Jaguars and the SWU Cobras will dispute the second final ticket.
Trailing by a matchstick, 86-87, in the final 27 seconds, Cyber Knights’ Dondon Nuñez calmly sank in his pressure-packed charities off a foul by Chris Victor Diputado with only four ticks left that turned out to be the game-clincher.
