Regular Season Round 18: Akita NH - Okinawa GK 76-90
Date: December 4, 2011
The most crucial game of the last round was a loss of Akita Happinets (11-5) at the home court on Sunday night. Hosts were defeated by Okinawa GK (12-4) 90-76. It was a key game for the top position in the league as both teams had the same 11-4 record before this meeting. The guests trailed by 2 points after first quarter, but they stormed back to get the 4-point lead at the halftime and eventually won the game 90-76. Okinawa GK outrebounded Akita Happinets 46-30 including a 36-25 advantage in defensive rebounds. It was a good game for American center Jeff Newton (205-81, college: Indiana) who led his team to a victory with a double-double by scoring 22 points, 15 rebounds and 4 blocks. Nigerian-American power forward Reggie Okosa (208-80, college: La Salle, agency: VVG Sports) contributed with a double-double by scoring 26 points and 13 rebounds (on 11-of-13 shooting from the field) for the winners. Okinawa GK's coach used a ten-player rotation which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. American guard Michael Gardener (182-81, college: SE Louisiana) replied with 26 points and 5 rebounds and his fellow American import swingman Ricky Woods (194-84, college: SE Louisiana) added 16 points and 12 rebounds in the effort for Akita Happinets. Four Akita Happinets players scored in double figures. Okinawa GK keeps a position of league leader, which they share with Osaka Evessa. Akita Happinets at the other side still keep top place with five games lost. They share the position with Shiga L-Stars and Kyoto Hannar.. Okinawa GK is looking forward to face league's second-placed Sendai 89ers at home in the next round and it will be for sure the game of the week. Akita Happinets will play against Miyazaki Shining Suns and are hoping to win this game.
