Mike Phillips came alive late in the fourth quarter to lift defending champion De La Salle University past feisty Far Eastern University, 58-53, for its eighth straight victory in the UAAP Season 87 men’s basketball tournament at the Mall of Asia Arena on Wednesday.
However, FEU also came back to its senses with Royce Alforque taking charge with a personal seven-point swing capped by a difficult and-1 floater to end the third quarter with a slim 41-40 lead in favor of the Tamaraws.Before the Tamaraws could pull away for good in the last two minutes of the game, the Green Archers steadily erased another five-point deficit as Phillips provided crucial defensive help and huge plays including a booming dunk and back-to-back tightly-contested hook shots.
