Regular Season Round 45: Nagasaki - Sendai 89ers 99-94

Date: March 28, 2026
Not a big story in a game when 6th ranked 89ers (27-18) lost to first ranked Velca (36-9) in Nagasaki 94-99 on Saturday. However just five-point win is not that big difference and the fans of host team counted on more convincing victory. Nagasaki forced 20 Sendai 89ers turnovers. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 25 assists. American Stanley Johnson (201-1996, college: Arizona) nailed 23 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists and 4 steals for the winning side and his fellow American import Jarrell Brantley (201-1996, college: Charleston) accounted for 20 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 steals. Velca's coach used a ten-player rotation in such tough game. Lebanese guard Sergio El Darwich (194-1996, college: Maine) came up with a double-double by scoring 24 points, 10 assists and 4 steals and American guard Jarrett Culver (198-1999, college: Texas Tech) added 24 points and 4 assists respectively for Sendai 89ers in the defeat. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Nagasaki maintains first place with 36-9 record. Loser 89ers keep the sixth position with 18 games lost. Nagasaki will meet at home Sendai 89ers (#6) in the next round which should be theoretically an easy game. Sendai 89ers will have a break next round.
