Date: November 29, 2014
No shocking result in a game when third ranked Toyama Grouses (13-4) smashed at home 7th ranked Oita Heat Devils (6-9) 72-47 on Saturday. The game without a history. Toyama Grouses led from the first minutes and controlled entire game increasing their lead in each quarter. They dominated on the defensive end, holding Oita Heat Devils to just 7 points in second quarter. Toyama Grouses dominated down low during the game scoring 62 of its points in the paint compared to Oita Heat Devils' 36.

His fellow American import center Joe Werner (201-84, college: Wisc.-La Crosse) chipped in a double-double by scoring 12 points and 15 rebounds. Four Toyama Grouses players scored in double figures. American guard Drew Barham (198-89, college: Gonzaga) produced 12 points and 8 rebounds and naturalized Brazilian forward Kazuya Hatano (192-82) added 11 points respectively for the guests. The winner was already known earlier in the game, so both coaches allowed to play the bench players saving starting five for next games. The victory was the third consecutive win for Toyama Grouses. They moved-up to second place, which they share with Akita NH. Loser Oita Heat Devils keep the seventh position with nine games lost. Toyama Grouses will face again Oita Heat Devils (#7) at home in the next round which should be theoretically another easy game.
