Regular Season Round 50: Shiga L-Stars - Osaka Evessa 78-81

Date: April 1, 2017
Sixth-ranked Shiga L-Stars (11-37) made lots of trouble for third ranked Osaka Evessa (23-25) on Saturday. The visitors from Osaka managed to secure only three-point victory 81-78. However their fans expected easier game. Osaka Evessa made 16-of-18 free shots (88.9 percent) during the game. Osaka Evessa outrebounded Shiga L-Stars 42-31 including 29 on the defensive glass. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Osaka Evessa made 7 blocks. American power forward Xavier Gibson (210-88, college: Florida St.) scored 21 points and 9 rebounds to lead the charge for the winners and the other American import forward Josh Harrellson (208-89, college: Kentucky) chipped in 11 points and 11 rebounds during the contest. Zimbabwean-American Julian Mavunga (203-90, college: Miami, OH, agency: Pensack Sports) responded with a double-double by scoring 24 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists and guard Narito Namizato (172-89) scored 15 points. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Both coaches tested many bench players in such tough game. Osaka Evessa moved-up to second place, which they share with Nagoya DD and Ryukyu GK. Loser Shiga L-Stars keep the sixth position with 37 games lost. Osaka Evessa will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. Shiga L-Stars will play again against the league's second-placed Osaka Evessa (#2) and hope to secure a win.
