Sendai 89ers was better in fourth quarter 21-14. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening.

Akita Happinets' coach Makoto Hasegawa used a ten-player rotation and allowed the starting five to rest. At the losing side American guard Wendell White (198-84, college: UNLV) responded with 20 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists and his fellow American import guard Kejuan Johnson (193-85, college: Long Beach St., agency: KMG Sports Management) scored 16 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists. Akita Happinets moved-up to fifth place, which they share with 5 other teams including defeated Sendai 89ers. Akita Happinets will face Fukushima (#10) on the road in the next round where they are favorite. Sendai 89ers will play against Niigata Albirex (#3) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
