Date: October 17, 2015
Very expected game when 7th ranked Iwate Big Bulls (2-3) were defeated at home by leader Niigata Albirex (4-0) 70-59 on Saturday. The game was mostly controlled by Niigata Albirex. Iwate Big Bulls was better in second period 21-16. But it was not enough to take a lead and get a victory that evening. Senegalese center Pape Faye (200-87) fired 17 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists for the winners. American guard Charles Hinkle (196-88, college: American) chipped in 24 points and 5 rebounds. Nigerian forward Abdullahi Kuso (206-84, college: Tallahassee CC) produced a double-double by scoring 11 points and 12 rebounds and Cameroonian forward James Siakam (201-92, college: Vanderbilt) added 9 points and 5 rebounds respectively for lost side. Iwate Big Bulls' coach Geoffrey Katsuhisa rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. Niigata Albirex have a solid series of four victories in a row. They maintain second place with 4-0 record behind leader Shimane SM. Loser Iwate Big Bulls keep the seventh position with three games lost. Niigata Albirex will have a break next round. Iwate Big Bulls will play again at home against the league's second-placed Niigata Albirex (#2) and hope to win that game.
