Regular Season Round 50: Toyama Grouses - San-en 88-76
Date: March 27, 2019
Rather expected game when 5th ranked San-en NeoPhoenix (20-30) was defeated on the road by third ranked Toyama Grouses (27-23) 88-76 on Wednesday. Toyama Grouses made 22-of-28 free shots (78.6 percent) during the game. San-en NeoPhoenix was plagued by 24 personal fouls down the stretch. American center Joshua Smith (208-92, college: Georgetown) had a double-double by scoring 25 points, 17 rebounds and 4 assists to lead the charge for the winners and international forward Naoki Uto (188-91) chipped in 16 points and 8 assists during the contest. Four Toyama Grouses players scored in double figures. Point guard Shinnosuke Ohishi (174-87) responded with a double-double by scoring 21 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists and the former international center Atsuya Ota (206-84) scored 12 points and 6 rebounds. Both coaches used bench players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Toyama Grouses have an impressive five-game winning streak. They moved-up to second place, which they share with Kyoto Hannar. Loser San-en NeoPhoenix keeps the fifth position with 30 games lost. Toyama Grouses will face Aishin Sea Horses (#4) in Kariya in the next round. San-en NeoPhoenix will play at home against the league's leader Niigata Albirex and hope to win that game.
