Although he suffered a loss the day before his 27th birthday, Kiefer Ravena made sure his week ended well.
Three days after Phoenix delivered a heartthrob to her, Ravena made sure to get it back in a surprising way when NLEX shocked TNT, 109-98, on Thursday night.
And it was at the expense of his father and also TNT’s head coach, Bong.
“It is always a pleasure to play against my first coach,Ravenna expressed.
“Motivated to play well against him and to this day, he’s my number one critic.”
Kiefer was really impressive.
Seeing his 10-point lead narrow to just five with less than a minute left to play, Ravena, who was shooting just 3 of 11 from the field, took matters into his own hands.
Calling for an iso play, the 6-foot guard decided to go one-one-one against the 6-foot-2 defensive specialist, Roger Pogoy. Ravena measured Pogoy and threw a sidewinder that went in.
Game, set, match.
Ravena finished with 16 points, nine rebounds and three assists. More importantly, he helped end the Road Warriors’ two-game streak to climb to a 2-5 record.
Of course, Kiefer would throw a light blow at Papa Bong.
“I love you dad! Thanks for the belated gift! “
