Regular Season Round 33: Fukushima - Yamagata 75-61

Date: January 31, 2026
Very predictable result in Fukushima where first ranked Firebonds (25-8) beat 6th ranked Wyverns (8-25) 75-61 on Saturday. Fukushima outrebounded Yamagata 53-30 including a 20-5 advantage in offensive rebounds. Fukushima looked well-organized offensively handing out 25 assists. Egyptian-American center Patrick Gardner (211-1999, college: Marist) stepped up with a double-double by scoring 25 points, 13 rebounds and 4 assists for the winners and American power forward Jack Nunge (213-1999, college: Xavier) chipped in 7 points, 15 rebounds and 4 assists. Firebonds' coach Ryan Marchand used entire bench and allowed the starting five to rest. The best for the losing side was American James Bell (196-1992, college: Villanova, agency: Slash Sports) with 16 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists and point guard Ryusei Abe (181-1995) scored 11 points. Fukushima maintains first place with 25-8 record, which they share with Shinshu. Loser Wyverns keeps the sixth position with 25 games lost. Fukushima will meet at home Yamagata (#6) in the next round which should be theoretically an easy game. Yamagata will have a break next round.
