MANILA, Philippines - Fil-Am Ryan Wetherell exploded for 38 points to power the Laguna Busa Warriors to a come-from-behind 89-86 victory over the erstwhile unbeaten Pampanga Foton Tornadoes in the FilSports Basketball Association Unity Games Friday night.

Wetherell took charge in the fourth as the Warriors overhauled a nine-point deficit to snatch their first victory in four starts before a hostile crowd at the Angeles University Foundation Gym in Pampanga.

“He was simply fantastic in this game, he’s ready for the PBA,” said Laguna coach Nic Belasco of his prized ward.
