Phoenix nearly squandered a double digit lead but held on just enough to eke out a 113-107 victory against the struggling Converge in the 2024 PBA Philippine Cup on Friday at the PhilSports Arena.The Fuel Masters, who saw their 18-point lead trimmed down to just three late in the fourth, arrested their two-game slump to improve to 2-4 while the FiberXers fell to a 0-7 hole.
Converge was able to cut the deficit to a single possession after a King Caralipio layup, 100-103, before Tuffin scored five straight points fueled by a three-pointer off a Kent Salado assist. Tuffin buried two free throws before Javee Mocon's basket sent Phoenix to a comfortable 113-103 cushion with 1:16 left in the game. The loss spoiled the huge outings from Justin Arana and Alec Stockton.
