Shinshu Brave Warriors are back home for a three-game stand and their first assignment is against Aomiri. It will be a two-game set and Shinshu will eye a sweep over a struggling team. They are coming off a 84-54 victory against Iwate and extended the winning streak to three matches. They also won the regular-season series 3-1 against Iwate. Shinshu now improved to 34-10 in the Eastern Conference. They are already qualified for the playoffs.
Shinshu went 17-4 at home this season and dropped two of the previous five games. They have allowed 82.2 points per game in the regular season and averaged 71.2 points. The hosts are third in blocks per game (3.2). The Brave Warriors ranked third in rebounds (42.5). They have posted a 7-3 record against Aomiri in B2 League. Shinshu are shooting 44.3% from the floor and 35.4% from the three-point line.
Mike Daum was again the top scorer in the last game with a game-high 25 points and nine rebounds. JJ O’Brien added 14 points, while Akitoshi Oguri also dropped 9 points. Mole Daum would be an offensive threat in this fixture. He is on a 7-game streak for double-digit scores. The forward averaged 17.9 points in the regular season. We back Daum to score 15 or more points in the upcoming fixture against Aomiri.
Aomiri head into the contest with a narrow 78-79 defeat against Nara and tied the series 1-1. Aomori had previously defeated Nara in the first of a two-game set. Consistency has been a big concern for the visitors. The Watts lost eight of the last 12 games in the B2 League. Meanwhile, Aomiri are still sitting at the sixth spot of the Eastern Conference with a 10-34 record. They are almost out of the postseason. In the 2024/25 season, they failed to qualify for the playoffs.
Aomiri would now face the conference leaders and they have a 3-7 record against them in the last ten. They secured just four wins out of 21 in away games. With a 78-72 lead, Aomiri had a chance to win but Nara scored 7 straight points to close the game. Aomiri were shooting 47% from the floor and 25% from the three-point line. The visitors are scoring 70.9 points and allowing 81.8 points per game. They are eight in offensive rebounds per game (9.6) and third in steals per game (8.2).
Aomiri conceded a double-digit lead in the first quarter but they pulled it back later in the game. Max Hisatake went for 17 points and 10 rebounds, while Tim Dalger chipped in with 15 points and 7 rebounds. Nabeta and Okabe also added 11 points each. Tim Dalger could be an offensive threat on Sunday. The 25-year-old averaged 11.9 points in the regular season. We back him to score 15 points in the road game against Shinshu.
