Limitless App, the first team to become a two-leg winner in PBA 3x3 tournament, surged at no.3 with a total of 361 points to edge out guest team Platinum Karaoke, which settled at no. 4 with 360 points.
Nonetheless, Meralco, TNT, Limitless App, and Platinum all qualified outright in the sudden-death stage and in strong contention for the champion’s purse worth P750,000.
Also vying in the grand finals are Terrafirma (325 pts), Leg 4 champion Purefoods (316), guest team Pioneer Pro Tibay (253), Leg 3 titlist Sista (218), and San Miguel (206)
