Regular Season Round 51: Ehime OV - Yamagata 67-65

Date: March 29, 2026
Sixth-ranked Wyverns (11-40) were very close to win a game against second ranked Orange Vikings (35-16) in Matsuyama. Orange Vikings managed to secure only two-point victory 67-65. However their fans expected much easier game. It was a great evening for American Shaquille Hines (201-1993, college: UTRGV) who led his team to a victory scoring 15 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists. His fellow American import center Mitchell Watt (208-1989, college: Buffalo, agency: Octagon Europe) helped adding 10 points and 13 rebounds. Four Orange Vikings players scored in double figures. Orange Vikings' coach allowed to play the deep bench players in such tough game. The best for the losing side was American James Bell (196-1992, college: Villanova, agency: Slash Sports) with 26 points and 5 rebounds and point guard Ryusei Abe (181-1995) scored 22 points. Orange Vikings have an impressive series of eight victories in a row. Ehime maintains second place with 35-16 record having four points less than leader Kobe S. Yamagata at the other side dropped to the fifth position with 40 games lost. They share it with Iwate. Ehime will play against Shizuoka (#7) at home in the next round which should be theoretically an easy game. Yamagata will play against Iwate and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
