Regular Season Round 23: Toyama Grouses - Kawasaki BT 107-108

Date: December 15, 2018
Very significant was Toshiba Thunders' (#2) just 1-point road victory against 4th placed Toyama Grouses 108-107. Toshiba Thunders players were unselfish on offense dishing 26 assists comparing to just 8 passes made by Toyama Grouses' players. It was an exceptional evening for international power forward Nick Fazekas (211-85, college: Nevada) who led the winners with a double-double by scoring 27 points, 13 rebounds and 4 assists (was perfect 7-for-7 from the free throw line). American power forward Vernon Macklin (208-86, college: Florida) accounted for 18 points and 8 rebounds for the winning side. American center Joshua Smith (208-92, college: Georgetown) came up with a double-double by scoring 36 points (!!!) and 20 rebounds and the other American import forward Leo Lyons (206-87, college: Missouri) added 30 points and 8 rebounds respectively for Toyama Grouses in the defeat. Five Toshiba Thunders and four Toyama Grouses players scored in double figures. Toyama Grouses' coach Don Beck rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help. Toshiba Thunders have a solid series of four victories in a row. They maintain second place with 14-10 record behind leader Tochigi Brex, which they share with Nagoya DD and Kyoto Hannar. Toyama Grouses at the other side dropped to the third position with 11 games lost. Toshiba Thunders will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. Toyama Grouses will play again at home against the league's second-placed Toshiba Thunders and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
