THE KINGS of late-second victories are back up to their old tricks again.

Orange 3 Pinelands have escaped with yet another one-point win, surviving four potential game-tying shots down the stretch before pulling out Thursday’s 69-68 thriller over Hilton Barbados Warriors in the Co-operators General Insurance Basketball Premier League at the Wildey Gym.

It was the third such victory this season alone for the Pine, who started the league with a pair of dramatic one-point games that went right down to the final play.

And this one was no different, as the shorthanded Warriors had clear-cut chances to force overtime on their last two possessions right before the buzzer.
