Beau Belga hits key baskets as Rain or Shine outlasts Ginebra in overtime

Rey Nambatac sent the game into an extra session and Beau Belga delivered the finishing kick as the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters pulled out an 85-82 overtime victory over Barangay Ginebra San Miguel Tuesday at the Angeles University Foundation Sports Arena.

Nambatac drilled a tough three-point shot with 2.1 seconds left to tie the game at 76. Gabe Norwood then made a key defensive stop to thwart a potential Ginebra game-winner, sending the game into overtime.

In the extra period, Belga took over. The veteran big man converted on back-to-back hits, including a gutsy triple, to give Rain or Shine an 83-78 lead with a minute and a half remaining.

Rain or Shine handed Ginebra its second straight loss while improving to a 4-1 record.
