Sendai 89ers were tied after three quarters but could not keep up in the last quarter eventually losing the game.

Sendai 89ers' coach Shuto Kawachi rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. The victory was the third consecutive win for Toyama Grouses. They moved-up to second place, which they share with Osaka Evessa and Kyoto Hannar. Loser Sendai 89ers keep the fifth position with three games lost. Toyama Grouses will face again Sendai 89ers (#8) at home in the next round which should be theoretically an easy game.
