Manila leaned on the heroics of Marvin Hayes as it subdued  Marikina, 91-89, to regain second spot in the North division while Muntinlupa strengthened its bid for homecourt advantage in the playoffs of the MPBL Datu Cup on Thursday night at Muntinlupa Sports Complex.

Hayes, the former Jose Rizal U bruiser and PBA journeyman, knocked in 19 points, including a tough jumper with 48 seconds remaining that helped wrapped up the Stars’ 19th victory in 23 outings.

Chris Bitoon finished with 19 points, while Aris Dionisio and Maclean Sabellina posted 10 points each for the Stars.
