Regular Season Round 28: Tochigi Brex - Hitachi SR 73-60

Date: April 16, 2016
Not a big story in a game when 5th ranked Hitachi Sunrockers (32-17) were defeated on the road by second ranked Tochigi Brex (39-9) 73-60 on Saturday. The game was mostly controlled by Tochigi Brex. Hitachi Sunrockers was better in fourth quarter 13-11. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Tochigi Brex made 9 blocks. Worth to mention a great performance of the former international swingman Takatoshi Furukawa (190-87) who helped to win the game recording 23 points and 5 rebounds and American guard Tommy Brenton (196-89, college: Stony Brook) who added 7 points, 11 rebounds and 8 assists during the contest. Furukawa is a former Eurobasket Summer League player, which is considered top international summer league in the market. At the losing side American power forward Joshua Heytvelt (210-86, college: Gonzaga) responded with a double-double by scoring 17 points and 15 rebounds and the former international guard Kenta Hirose (193-85) scored 17 points and 6 rebounds. Both coaches allowed to play bench players saving starting five for next games. Tochigi Brex have an impressive seven-game winning streak. They maintain second position with 39-9 record having just three points less than leader Toyota Alvark. Hitachi Sunrockers lost third consecutive game. They dropped to the fourth place with 17 games lost. Tochigi Brex will face Dragonflies (#9) in Hiroshima in the next round and are hoping to win another game. Hitachi Sunrockers' supporters look forward to an exciting derby game next round, where their team will travel locally in Tokyo to the arena Toyota Alvark.
