Sixth-ranked Yokohama BC (14-44) made lots of trouble for fourth ranked Toyama Grouses (31-28). The visitors from Toyama managed to secure only two-point victory 99-97. However their fans expected easier game. Toyama Grouses shot 28 for 42 from the free-throw line, while Yokohama BC only scored twelve points from the stripe. It was a great shooting night for Toyama Grouses especially from behind the arc, where they had solid 60.0 percentage. Their players were unselfish on offense dishing 24 assists. 29 personal fouls committed by Yokohama BC helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. The game was dominated by American players. Center Joshua Smith (208-92, college: Georgetown) nailed a double-double by scoring 25 points and 13 rebounds for the winning side and forward Leo Lyons (206-87, college: Missouri) accounted for 23 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists. Power forward Alex Stepheson (208-87, college: USC) came up with a double-double by scoring 23 points, 19 rebounds and 5 assists and forward Brandon Costner (206-87, college: NC State) added 22 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists respectively for Yokohama BC in the defeat. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Yokohama BC's coach Thomas Wisman tried various players' combinations and tested in total eleven players, but that didn't help to avoid defeat in this game. Toyama Grouses moved-up to third place. Yokohama BC lost their eleventh game in a row. They keep the sixth position with 44 games lost. Both teams do not play next round, which will be an opportunity for some rest.
