The Pampanga Lanterns outlasted the Bacolod Tubo Slashers 100-91 in a high-scoring MPBL affair on April 28, 2025. In an offensive showcase, the Lanterns reached the century mark to secure a nine-point road victory. Both teams traded baskets for much of the game, but Pampanga used a key run in the fourth quarter to create the necessary separation. Bacolod, playing at home, fought hard but ultimately could not get enough defensive stops to overtake the visitors. The 100-point output demonstrated the Lanterns' potent offensive firepower, a valuable asset as they climb the league standings. For the Slashers, it was a tough loss in a game where their own offense performed well. The Pampanga coach would have been pleased with his team's scoring balance and poise in a hostile environment.
