    Tumalip had six points including a two-pointer that brought Platinum’s lead to 13-10. Jorey Napoles nailed a two-pointer for Cavitex, but his game-winning attempt was rejected by Bates to seal the win.

    Bates had four points, four rebounds, and two blocks, while Salva had three as Platinum Karaoke bagged the P100,000 top prize.

    Platinum Karaoke won its first match in Pool C against Purefoods, 21-11, before losing to Meralco, 18-17, but the Anton Altamirano-coached squad never lost another game after that.
