The Philippine-US defender will get another shot at the Governor’s Cup title in the best-of-seven showdown with TNT in Barangay Ginebra.
Ahamisi played a crucial role in Ginebra’s return to the final. Ahamissi scored a team-high 25 points in Ginebra’s 102-99 victory over San Miguel Beer on Sunday night at a sold-out Smart Araneta Arena, helping the team win Game 6 of the series and advance 4-2.
He shot 3 of 6 from beyond the arc and scored 11 points in the second quarter to help Ginebra stay even with SAN Miguel in the first half.
Justin Brownlee and Japeth Aguilar then took over, eventually helping the Kings clinch the win and make it to the finals.
