Regular Season Round 14: Yamaguchi - Kanazawa 88-74

Date: November 19, 2023
There was no surprise when 18th ranked Kanazawa (1-13) was defeated on the road by thirteenth ranked Yamaguchi (6-8) 88-74 on Sunday. Yamaguchi dominated down low during the game scoring 58 of its points in the paint compared to Kanazawa's 38. Strangely Kanazawa outrebounded Yamaguchi 44-28 including 31 on the defensive glass. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 22 assists. American guard Desmond Jackson (185-1992, college: AAMU) scored 21 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists to lead the charge for the winners and the other American import swingman Jelan-Miguel Kendrick (201-1991, college: UNLV, agency: Interperformances) chipped in 18 points and 7 rebounds during the contest. Yamaguchi's coach Kazuto Samejima used entire bench and allowed the starting five to get some rest. American center Joshua Crawford (211-1988, college: Indiana St.) responded with a double-double by scoring 20 points and 22 rebounds and Ukrainian point guard Igor Boyarkin (182-1995, agency: BIG) scored 18 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists. Four Kanazawa players scored in double figures. Yamaguchi moved-up to eleventh place, which they share with Toyoda. Kanazawa lost eleventh consecutive game. They stay at the bottom position with 13 games lost. Yamaguchi will meet Okayama (#17) on the road in the next round where they are favorite. Kanazawa will play against Kagawa FA and will have a slim chance for a victory.
