Fouling out last game, Cameron Clark closes out for NLEX this time and scores the crucial and-one play that allows the Road Warriors to fight another day

MANILA, Philippines – No sweep.

Import Cameron Clark proved clutch as NLEX avoided elimination, hacking out an 86-85 win over Barangay Ginebra in Game 3 of their PBA Governors’ Cup semifinals at the Mall of Asia Arena on Sunday, March 27.

Fouling out midway through the fourth quarter last game, Clark closed out for the Road Warriors this time and scored the crucial and-one play that allowed the Road Warriors to cut their deficit in the best-of-five duel at 1-2.

It was a tied game at 83-83 before Clark stole a pass from LA Tenorio and sank a layup with seven ticks remaining plus the foul from Justin Brownlee.

Clark, who finished with 21 points, 17 rebounds, 5 steals, and 4 assists, knocked down the bonus free throw to create more separation for NLEX en route to the victory.

Unaware of how big the Gin Kings’ deficit was, Tenorio went for a layup instead of a three-pointer that could have forced overtime, as the Road Warriors lived to fight another day.
