▽Comments from Tsubasa Yonamine Kings U18 head coach

First of all, I am very grateful to have been given the opportunity to play in such an environment. I was very happy that so many fans came out to support me, but I am also very disappointed that I couldn’t live up to their expectations. However, the players executed the game plan that we came up with, so I am proud of that. We want to become even stronger and prepare well for the next match.

▽#99 Motoki Aragaki Player Comment

I think we were able to compete equally well with Chiba J in the beginning, but as the second half progressed, we weren’t able to get any rebounds, our opponents were allowing us to take 3-point shots, and we had to play patiently when we couldn’t get our own shots. I was disappointed that I couldn’t do it. I will practice hard again for the next match.
