Former PBA and MPBL player Poligrates surpassed the previous record of 58 points set by James Martinez when AMA defeated Topstar ZC Mindanao, 125-76, on August 2, 2016.
The Cebuano guard, a former pick of TNT in the 2013 PBA draft and a former player of Cebu Sharks in MPBL, converted 11-of-25 shots from beyond the arc and had five assists and two rebounds in the win.
In an interview with Cebu Daily News, Poligrates said he wanted to prove his doubters wrong and to make a PBA comeback.
