Meanwhile, Carl Tamayo made his first start but his offensive presence was hardly felt in the Ryukyu Golden Kings’ 69-58 victory over the Shinshu Brave Warriors.
Tamayo was scoreless in 14 minutes of play but he contributed four rebounds, one assist, one steal, and one block as Ryukyu improved to 33-9.

Thirdy Ravena scattered 15 points, 12 rebounds, five assists, three steals, and a block but the San-En NeoPhoenix fell to the Sendai 89ers in overtime, 86-83, at the Tooyohashi City Gymnasium.
San-En lost back-to-back to Sendai, dropping to a 17-25 slate.
Matthew Wright’s 14-point, three-rebound, and three-assist game went for naught as the Kyoto Hannaryz (16-26) absorbed an 83-62 rout to the Chiba Jets at the Kyoto City Gymnasium.
Kiefer Ravena was scoreless in 19 minutes off the bench as the Shiga Lakes couldn’t sustain their previous win, falling to the Toyama Grouses, 94-85, and sliding to a 6-36 card at Toyama City Gymnasium.
