IT’S Ray Parks’ turn to shoot the lights out for TNT.
Playing his first game in the bubble, Parks made seven three-pointers on his way to a career-high 40 points as the Tropang GIGA took the solo lead in the 2020 PBA Philippine Cup with a 112-101 victory over Terrafirma on Tuesday night at the Angeles University Foundation Sports Arena and Cultural Center.
Parks hardly looked like a player that missed TNT’s first game in the bubble just days before due to a calf injury.
The sophomore guard was perfect from threes in the first half, hitting three to lead TNT to a 56-43 halftime lead. He sustained his form in the second half, contributing 25 more points to the Tropang GIGA's second win in as many games.
It was the second straight time that a TNT player scored 40 or more points, following up on RR Pogoy’s 45-point night in the opener against Alaska.
Parks also added 10 rebounds in an all-around double-double performance.
