There was a minor upset when 7th ranked Toyama Grouses (7-17) were defeated on the road by seventh ranked Shimane Magic (11-15) 84-75 on Sunday. The hosts trailed by 1 point at the halftime before their 25-12 charge in the third quarter, which allowed them to win the game. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Shimane Magic made 8 blocks. The best player for the winners was guard Edward Yamamoto (173-86) who scored 15 points and 5 rebounds. American center Jeral Davis (216-84) chipped in 14 points, 9 rebounds and 6 blocks. Davis is a former Eurobasket Summer League player, which is considered top summer league for players who want to play basketball overseas. At the other side the best for losing team was American center Matthew Kyle (211-86, college: Yale) who recorded 16 points and 8 rebounds (on 6-of-7 shooting from the field) and the other American import swingman Brian Harper (208-85, college: Paine) added 17 points and 7 rebounds respectively. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Both coaches used bench players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Shimane Magic moved-up to fifth place, which they share with Saitama Bron. Loser Toyama Grouses keep the seventh position with 17 games lost. Shimane Magic will face league's leader Hamamatsu Phoenix in Mikawa in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Toyama Grouses will play on the road against Oita Heat Devils (#6) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
