THE TNT Tropang Giga booked a trip to the semifinal round via a dominant 125-96 win over the NLEX Road Warriors in Game 4 of their best-of-five quarterfinal series on Tuesday night, October 1, at the Ninoy Aquino Stadium.

TNT won the series, 3-1, taking an extra day off as it still needs to await its opponent in the best-of-seven semifinal round. TNT’s semifinal opponent will come from the other quarterfinal series between the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters and the Magnolia Hotshots.

Robert Bolick paced the eliminated NLEX with 25 points, while DeQuan Jones contributed 21.
