PLAYING nearly an hour of basketball, an exhausted Chris McCullough could only sit and take at least a minute of breather.
Fatigue has truly taken its toll on the high-scoring San Miguel import as he sat for at least a minute after his side pulled off a 127-125 Game Two win over TNT in the 2019 PBA Commissioner's Cup Finals on Wednesday.
McCullough fired 32 points, 22 rebounds, seven assists, two steals, and one block as he logged 57 minutes and 28 minutes of action.
He sat speechless as SMB coach Leo Austria had a short chat with him after the tiring win.
"I'm tired. I never played over 57 minutes before but we got the win. Anything we need to get the win," McCullough said.
After getting his bearings together, McCullough was finally able to pick himself up and bring himself back to the San Miguel dugout.
McCullough, however, must find the resolve to re-energize himself with Game Three set on Friday, still at Smart Araneta Coliseum.
