Road Warriors eye share of PBA lead vs FiberXers; Kings battle Bossing

- By REYNALD MAGALLON

NLEX eyes a share of the PBA Season 49 Philippine Cup lead although Converge is standing right on its path when they collide Friday, May 23, at the PhilSports Arena in Pasig City.

The Road Warriors are not only aiming to sustain their hot run of five games but also to improve to a 6-1 slate that would allow them to catch up with the Magnolia Hotshots atop the standings.

Playing arguably its best basketball in recent years, NLEX is looking to stretch its streak to six at the end of its 5 p.m. affair against Converge (5-3).
