MANILA, Philippines

Always coming through down the stretch for Barangay Ginebra, LA Tenorio wins the Finals MVP honors

LA Tenorio finally captured his first PBA Philippine Cup title with a personal award to boot.

Tenorio bagged his fourth Finals Most Valuable Player honors after helping Barangay Ginebra nail the All-Filipino championship with a five-game conquest of TNT.

The veteran playmaker averaged 13.6 points, 6.2 assists, 2.8 rebounds, and 1.4 steals in the best-of-seven series, always coming through for Ginebra down the stretch in several games.

He finished with 10 points and 6 assists in the title-clinching Game 5, dishing out the timely dimes that secured the 82-78 victory for Ginebra.

“I only asked the Lord for an All-Filipino championship but he gave me a bonus,” Tenorio said in Filipino after receiving the award.

Tenorio beat out teammates Stanley Pringle, Japeth Aguilar, and Scottie Thompson for the citation. – Rappler.com
