Anosike’s 41 powers San Miguel to 2-0 PBA QF series lead over Converge


San Miguel was tougher in the endgame this time as it took down Converge, 107-100, to take a commanding 2-0 lead in their PBA Season 49 Governors’ Cup quarterfinal series, Saturday night at the SMART Araneta Coliseum.

EJ Anosike and CJ Perez came through with the 7-2 finishing kick as the Beermen showed how much they’ve learned from that near-collapse in Game 1, in the process moving just a win away from a semifinal appearance.

Anosike showed the way with 41 points as the American-Nigerian winger has seemingly acclimatized to the perennial contenders’ scheme of things.
