Desiderio catches fire for MisOr; Davao Occi, Novaliches win
There's a new 'Mr. Clutch' in the Pilipinas Super League.
Paul Desiderio, who made a name for himself as one of University of the Philippines' big-time performers, rediscovered his shooting form in leading MisOr to a tense 124-111 double overtime victory over RCP Shawarma Shack in the PSL President's Cup recently at the Filoil-EcoOil Centre in San Juan.
Desiderio went on to finish with 26 points, including four three-point baskets, to steer the Mustangs to their fourth win in seven games.
The Demigods absorbed their ninth loss in 10 games.
"It's good to be back," said Desiderio, who spent the past two years recovering from injury and coming back in the cage circuit after bouncing out of the big league.
