Nishikawa’s successful 3-point shot, #8 Smith’s inside and #24 Taniguchi’s 3-point shot. We scored points with shots and it became a back-and-forth battle. Nara’s team fouls exceeded 5, and Fukuoka had a chance to take a free throw, but they were unable to make it with a high probability, and the game continued to be patient, but Taniguchi succeeded in making his second 3-point shot. As the team calmed down, #25 Burrell also made count plays and dunk shots, ending the first half with a three-point lead at 41-38. In the second half, Taniguchi, who had scored 10 points in the first half alone, made a successful count play, and the game was tied. Fukuoka wanted to maintain this momentum and push through, but they were hated by the ring and their offense continued to be sluggish. After the first timeout of the second half, he scored from an offensive rebound, and Kato showed his presence on the defensive side, and as the back-and-forth battle continued, Smith fouled out with 8:24 left in the final quarter and chasing five points. Then, the flow of the game changed, and although #12 Kantake scored points with 3-point shots and free throws, they were unable to break Nara’s flow and ended up losing the game with a 19-point lead. [Comment] ■Hamaguchiitis HC Nara’s defense was very fierce, and we couldn’t get comfortable with our offense, so we couldn’t score points, so we had a hard time throughout the game. ■Justin Burrell Looking back at today’s game, we couldn’t make the basket we wanted at all. Especially on defense, we were unable to follow the instructions given by our coach. In order to make a comeback in tomorrow’s game, I believe that following the coach’s instructions and playing aggressively will lead to victory.
