ANTIPOLO – TNT took care of business and finished off Rain or Shine, 113-95, to formalize its PBA Governors’ Cup Finals return, Friday night at the Ynares Center.
Refusing to give their foes room to get going further, the Tropang Giga opened the second chapter with 12 straight points for a 40-25 lead, then finished the period up 17 as they broke away wide to eventually finish the series in five.
Rondae Hollis-Jefferson starred for the defending champions anew as he finished with 36 points, 11 rebounds, nine assists, and six steals.
The Tropa have earned some needed respite as well with the victory while they await their Finals foes between Barangay Ginebra and San Miguel.
The Kings lead the series, 3-2, and could finish it off in Game 6 on Sunday in the same venue and set up a rematch of the 2023 Governors’ Cup Finals.
