Lassiter, with that shot at the 6:47 mark of the final frame, has now surpassed the great Allan Caidic at the second spot in the all-time three-point list with the chance of becoming the leader and dislodging another PBA legend Jimmy Alapag from the top not too far in the horizon.

Lassiter, coming into the game, was actually three triples away from tying ‘The Triggerman’ and made sure to surpass him with his four conversions from deep to finish with 17 points.Just to be in this elite status is quite amazing. I’m just truly grateful and thankful,” said Lassiter, who, apart from achieving the feat on Wednesday, Sept. 11, also helped San Miguel exact its revenge against NLEX with a 119-114 win at the Ninoy Aquino Stadium.
In the top 10, only Lassiter and Caidic had less than 600 games with Alapag needing 601 to achieve his spot at the top which he did back in Oct. 2016.
