MANILA, Philippines—Jim Viray made his final game with RnW Pacific Pipes a memorable one.

Finding his rhythm in the second half, Viray pumped in 23 points to lead the Steel Masters to a runaway 74-59 victory over the Cobra Energy Drink Ironmen Tuesday in the PBA D-League Aspirants Cup at the San Juan Arena.

The former San Sebastian Stag, who is set to leave for Australia for personal reasons, buried six triples and a key three-point play in the last two quarters to power the Steel Masters, who stayed in the hunt for a playoff berth by improving to 4-3.

“It’s a fitting tribute game for Jim (Viray),” said RnW coach Topex Robinson, whose squad broke away in the second quarter by outscoring Cobra, 26-9.
