But when it mattered most, he showed everyone why he’s the BPC as he came up big when Barangay Ginebra needed him. With control of the finals at stake, Slaughter was called upon by Gin Kings coach Tim Cone to be a bigger factor and he didn’t disappoint. Slaughter unleashed 17 points and 15 rebounds to help the Gin Kings take Game 5, 85-74, Sunday night and more importantly move closer to winning the championship, having a 3-2 lead now. We all needed to step-up because we treated this last game as a do-or-die for us,” said Slaughter. Now, he looks forward to once again help his team in its bid to finish off Meralco in Game 6 tomorrow.
