Standhardinger produced a career-high 41 points on an ultra-efficient 13-of-17 shooting, but that went down the drain as Meralco knotted the best-of-seven series at 1-1. The game marked the second time in this playoffs that Meralco still won despite its opponent having a player breaching the 40-point mark.
Cliff Hodge posted 13 points and 10 rebounds, while Chris Banchero netted 11 points and 8 rebounds, with the two delivering crucial buckets in the 8-2 closing run Meralco used to fend off the Ginebra comeback. He also supplied 11 rebounds and 4 assists, but his all-around numbers were not enough as Ginebra trailed for most of the game.
