Teams Preview
SeaHorses Mikawa Preview
SeaHorses Mikawa enter after a 84-94 loss against Shibuya, where offensive efficiency dropped below their season standard. They shot 41% from the field and 33% from three, while also conceding 53% shooting, highlighting defensive lapses. Despite the loss, their broader form remains strong with eight wins in the last ten games.
Statistically, Mikawa maintain balance on both ends. They average 83.6 points while allowing 77.4, supported by 46.3% shooting and solid ball movement at 20.4 assists per game. Defensively, they limit opponents effectively, particularly in half-court setups. However, rebounding remains a mild concern, as seen in their last game where they were out-rebounded 30-37.
Tactically, Mikawa rely on controlled pace and efficient shot selection. Their ability to suppress opponent shooting gives them a consistent edge, especially at home, where defensive discipline tends to improve.
Hiroshima Dragonflies Preview
Hiroshima come into this matchup following a 96-100 overtime loss against Chiba, where offensive production was strong but defensive execution proved costly. They shot 48% from the field and 50% from three, yet allowed high-efficiency scoring and were out-rebounded 33-45, which ultimately decided the game.
Offensively, Hiroshima are slightly more aggressive, averaging 87.0 points per game with comparable shooting efficiency at 46.0%. Their perimeter shooting at 34.5% adds spacing, while rebounding strength at 39.7 per game provides second-chance opportunities. However, their defensive numbers remain a concern, conceding 83.7 points and allowing higher opponent efficiency.
From a tactical standpoint, Hiroshima prefer a faster tempo with higher scoring variance. This creates upside but also increases volatility, particularly against structured defensive teams like Mikawa.
