Toyama Grouses made 25-of-31 charity shots (80.6 percent) during the game, while Sendai 89ers only scored four points from the stripe. Sendai 89ers were plagued by 24 personal fouls down the stretch. The game was also dominated by American players.

Guard Jermaine Dixon (191-87, college: Pittsburgh, agency: HMS) contributed with 24 points and 8 rebounds for the winners.

Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Sendai 89ers' coach Shuto Kawachi rotated ten players in this game, but that didn't help.
