Regular Season Round 28: Hokkaido L. - Toyama Grouses 85-76
Date: March 18, 2018
We cannot really consider it an upset in the game between close teams in Saporro where 5th ranked Toyama Grouses (18-26) were defeated by sixth ranked Hokkaido L. (22-22) 85-76 on Sunday. Hokkaido L. made 17-of-21 free shots (81.0 percent) during the game. They also forced 20 Toyama Grouses turnovers. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 26 assists comparing to just 12 passes made by Toyama Grouses' players. American center Daniel Miller (211-91, college: Georgia Tech) fired a double-double by scoring 14 points and 10 rebounds for the winners. Guard Asahi Tajima (173-88) chipped in 4 points, 5 rebounds and 13 assists. International forward Naoki Uto (188-91) produced 26 points and 6 assists and American power forward Clint Chapman (208-89, college: Texas) added 19 points and 7 rebounds respectively for lost side. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Both coaches tested many bench players and allowed the starting five to rest. Hokkaido L. moved-up to second place, which they share with 3 other teams. Loser Toyama Grouses keep the fifth position with 26 games lost. Hokkaido L. will face league's leader Toyota Alvark in Tokyo in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. Toyama Grouses will play on the road against the league's leader Ryukyu GK (#1) in Okinawa and hope to win that game.
