Regular Season Round 20: Kanazawa - Gifu 70-84

Date: December 6, 2025
Not a big story in a game in Ishikawa where 10th ranked Samuraiz (8-11) was defeated by eighth ranked Swoops (10-9) 84-70 on Saturday. Gifu made 18-of-21 free shots (85.7 percent) during the game. Gifu outrebounded Kanazawa 42-30 including 28 on the defensive glass. The best player for the winners was American forward Blake Preston (206-2000, college: Northwestern) who had a double-double by scoring 27 points and 17 rebounds. Kodai Takahashi chipped in 17 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists. American forward KJ Allen (198-2000, college: Portland St.) produced 15 points and 9 rebounds and Dutch forward Jediael Cordilia (206-2002, college: Mt.St.Mary's) added 14 points respectively for the hosts. Samuraiz's coach rotated eleven players saving starting five for next games. Gifu maintains eighth position with 10-9 record. Loser Samuraiz keeps the tenth place with 11 games lost. Gifu will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. Kanazawa will play against Gifu (#8) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
