Regular Season Round 1: Saitama - Okayama 79-69

Date: October 7, 2023
Saitama used a home court advantage and defeated the opponent from Okayama 79-69 on Saturday night. American power forward Ryan Watkins (206-1991, college: Boise St., agency: Slash Sports) stepped up with a double-double by scoring 16 points and 20 rebounds for the winners and his fellow American import guard Jamison Overton (198-1999, college: Weber St.) chipped in 19 points. Four Saitama players scored in double figures. At the losing side American power forward Michael Phillips (202-1990, college: Howard) responded with a double-double by scoring 26 points and 10 rebounds and guard Keisuke Takabatake (183-1990) scored 7 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists. Both coaches allowed to play bench players saving starting five for next games. Saitama will again meet at home Okayama in the next round which should be an easy win for them. Okayama will have a break next round.
