Teams Preview
Yokohama Excellence
Yokohama enter this home fixture aiming to halt Kobe’s 12-game winning streak, and their form across the last five games shows both their scoring potential and defensive inconsistency.
They have averaged 93.4 points scored and 79.2 conceded, largely driven by Tray Boyd III’s explosive production. Boyd leads the entire B2 League in scoring with 26.4 points per game. The supporting cast has been steady, but Yokohama still rely heavily on Boyd’s creation.
Despite sitting fourth in the Eastern Conference at 9 wins in 17 games, the Excellence have shown offensive flow, cracking the 100 mark twice in their last five outings. However, their defense remains an issue, particularly in interior protection where they lack consistent rim deterrence. Facing the league’s best rebounding duo in Yoeli Childs and Isaac Butts will test their physicality.
Kobe Storks
Kobe arrive as the strongest team in the B2 League with a stunning 16 wins in 17 games. Over their last five outings, they have averaged 79.6 points scored while conceding only 68.8, showcasing how disciplined their defensive structure has been.
Yoeli Childs continues to be the anchor on both ends, leading the entire league with 12.2 rebounds per game alongside 17.6 points. His partnership with veteran center Isaac Butts, who averages 10.2 rebounds, makes Kobe the most reliable interior team in the league.
