Date: December 16, 2017
We could consider it a predictable result in the game between close teams when sixth ranked Yokohama BC (6-17) defeated on the road 5th ranked Toyama Grouses (9-14) 76-58 on Saturday. Yokohama BC dominated down low during the game scoring 48 of its points in the paint compared to Toyama Grouses' 26. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Yokohama BC made 9 blocks. Tanzanian center Hasheem Thabeet (218-87, college: Connecticut) orchestrated the victory by scoring 4 points, 13 rebounds and 5 blocks. American forward William McDonald (206-79, college: Grambling St.) contributed with 14 points for the winners. American forward Sam Willard (205-88, college: Pacific, agency: Pensack Sports) answered with 7 points and 12 rebounds and Naoaki Hashimoto (183-92) added 17 points in the effort for Toyama Grouses. Both coaches tested many bench players and allowed the starting five to get some rest. Yokohama BC moved-up to fourth place, which they share with Osaka Evessa. Toyama Grouses lost third consecutive game. They dropped to the fourth position with 14 games lost. Yokohama BC will face Niigata Albirex (#5) at home in the next round. Toyama Grouses will play against the league's second-placed Diamond Dolphins and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
