We could consider it a predictable result in the game between close teams when sixth ranked Yokohama BC (13-36) beat on the road 5th ranked Toyama Grouses (21-28) 97-88 on Saturday. Yokohama BC made 23-of-25 free shots (92.0 percent) during the game, while Toyama Grouses only scored six points from the stripe. It was a great shooting night for Yokohama BC especially from behind the arc, where they had solid 53.3 percentage. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 31 assists. The former international guard Takuya Kawamura (193-86) fired 29 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists (made all of his eight free throws) for the winners. American forward William McDonald (206-79, college: Grambling St.) chipped in 18 points. Yokohama BC's coach used a ten-player rotation and allowed the starting five to get some rest. International forward Naoki Uto (188-91) produced a double-double by scoring 18 points, 5 rebounds and 14 assists and forward Yuki Ueta (193-87) added 18 points and 5 rebounds respectively for lost side. Five Toyama Grouses players scored in double figures. Yokohama BC maintains sixth place with 13-36 record. Loser Toyama Grouses dropped to the fourth position with 28 games lost. Yokohama BC will face higher ranked Nishinomiya S. (#5) in Hyogo in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Toyama Grouses will play at home against San-en NeoPhoenix and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
