Riding high after a breakthrough win, Sedrick Barefield and Christian David look to spark the Blackwater Bossing to back-to-back dubs as they take on the streaking NLEX Road Warriors in the PBA Season 49 Philippine Cup on Friday, May 2.

The match starts at 5 p.m. at the Ynares Center in Montalban.

Blackwater snapped a two-game slide in emphatic fashion with a 120-98 demolition of NorthPort last April 25. Barefield lit it up with 20 points on five triples to go with four assists, three rebounds, and three steals, while David chipped in a solid 19-point, six-rebound outing to give the Bossing their first win of the conference.

Now standing at 1-2, Blackwater faces a stern test in NLEX, which has won two straight after a slow start.

But with their offense finally clicking and momentum on their side, coach Jeffrey Cariaso’s squad is eager to prove they can hang with one of the hottest teams in the tournament.
