Karl Dehesa hit the game-winner as the Wilkins Balanga Pure edged out the Equalivet-Pasig Kings, 21-20 (8:02) to rule the third leg of the Chooks-to-Go Pilipinas 3×3 Magiting Cup on Tuesday at the SM BF Paranaque Events Center.

“It was an experimental phase for us in the first leg but we’ve been for a long time now. We’ve been developing chemistry,” said Dehesa. “But this is just the beginning. We can’t be complacent and settle as the Chooks league champions. It’s a great honor but we want to win international competitions.”

For a while the Wilkins Pure seemed headed for another easy win when they took a 5-point lead, but the Kings rallied and took the lead, 20-19.

The Pure, however, refused to be intimidated as Dehesa – in his best game so far – knocked down a clutch deuce to seal Balanga’s second leg win in the event
