It was like another day in the office for Secretary Bong Go.
From being President Duterte’s man Friday, the spitfirish Go took to the basketball court and saved the day for Team Duterte which won via a 81-80 squeaker over IBP on Sunday at the Genesis 88 Gym.
Bouncing back after a not so-Bong Go-ish performance in Game 5 of their friendly series, the cabinet’s busiest body shot 11 triples all the way to 45 points in a scintallating Game 6 performance.
The win gave the Duterte hoopsters a perfect 6-0 record over the Legal Eagles.
Go found his mark at behind the arc early and sustained his hot-shooting to lead his team as he recovered from an anemic three-point outing the previous game with only 3 treys after averaging close to seven in the first four outings.
Armand Dioso paced the IBP with 41 baskets. Gil Ciudadano had 20.
It was another heartbreaking loss for the Davao Lawyers who came closest to taking one game in the series.
IBP had a chance to end its losing skid but once again blew it out with breaks of the game went the other way.
Eugene Labor contributed 14 points for Team Duterte which also got help from Rep Lord Allan Velasco, Warren Cloribel and John Flores.
IBP lost four games in the series with the game decided by less than six points.
