The game in Gifu was also worth to mention about. Third ranked Saitama (28-6) played at the court of 8th ranked Gifu (14-20). Saitama did not have too big problems and got a relatively easy victory 113-95. Saitama made 30-of-37 charity shots (81.1 percent) during the game.

Five Saitama and four Gifu players scored in double figures. Both coaches tested many bench players which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. Saitama have an impressive series of nine victories in a row. They maintain third place with 28-6 record having just two points less than leader Shizuoka. Gifu lost third consecutive game. They keep the eighth position with 20 games lost. They share it with Toyoda. Saitama will play against Okayama (#7) at home in the next round.
