Gary David explodes as Powerade trumps Petron

MANILA, Philippines—Scoring machine Gary David exploded for 42 points as Powerade repulsed Petron, 108-94, in the 2011 PBA Philippine Cup Sunday.

David, who bounced back from a lackadaisical game versus B-Meg, sizzled and barely missed from the field—making four of his six three pointers and 11 of his 13 shots from two-point area.

The Tigers clawed back from 12 points down and seized the lead with an 86-83 advantage on a triple by David early in the fourth quarter.

Powerade, which improved to a 3-3 slate, clung on to the lead down the stretch by leaning on its steady shooting from the line.

Doug Kramer scored 18 points, Rudy Lingganay and Marcio Lassiter added 11 for the Tigers, who arrested a two-game losing skid.
