Tey Teodoro dropped the biggest bomb, nailing a clutch basketball to destroy Far Eastern University’s bronze medal hopes, 71-69, in the Filoil Flying V Hanes Preseason Premier Cup Sunday at San Juan Arena.

JRU had the possession with 11.6 seconds left in the game when Teodoro caught the ball at the top of the key, then he drove feet to the left elbow and finished with demoralizing floater with 1.9 seconds remaining.
