Marasigan stands by last-second shot despite La Salle's Game 2 loss to UP

Despite missing a crucial shot in Game 2 of the UAAP Season 88 men's basketball finals, La Salle's Vhoris Marasigan stands by his decision to take the potential game-winning shot against UP.

The Green Archers lost a close game to the defending champions UP, 66-63, forcing a winner-take-all Game 3.

With less than a minute left and La Salle trailing by two, Marasigan took the shot after his teammate Jacob Cortez was heavily guarded.

Marasigan expressed that it was a good shot that unfortunately did not go in, and that he initially wanted Cortez to take the final shot but was unable to pass him the ball.

The series will now head to a decisive Game 3 on Wednesday, December 17.
