Date: November 27, 2011
Very expected game when bottom-ranked Takamatsu FA (0-14) was rolled over on the road by third ranked Shiga L-Stars (9-5) 95-69 on Sunday. The hosts trailed by 1 point after first quarter, but they stormed back to get the 8-point lead at the halftime and eventually won the game 95-69. It was a great shooting night for Shiga L-Stars especially from behind the arc, where they had solid 61.5 percentage. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 22 assists. The game was dominated by American players. Forward Ray Nixon (203-84, college: Wisconsin) fired 19 points and 8 rebounds for the winners. Forward Josh Peppers (201-85, college: Cent.Florida, agency: Court Side) chipped in 18 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. Shiga L-Stars' coach Al Westover felt very confident that he used 10 players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Forward Michael Nunnally (203-86, college: Pacific) produced a double-double by scoring 11 points and 16 rebounds and power forward Paul Butorac (208-83, college: E.Washington) added 21 points respectively for lost side. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Shiga L-Stars moved-up to second place, which they share with 3 other teams. Loser Takamatsu FA still closes the standings with 14 games lost. Shiga L-Stars will face Saitama Broncos (#8) at home in the next round where they are favorite. Takamatsu FA will play against Iwate Big Bulls and hopes to get finally their first victory.
