B1 League Round: Altiri Chiba 91-104 Hiroshima Dragonflies The Hiroshima Dragonflies soared to an important 104-91 road victory over Altiri Chiba in a high-scoring B1 League clash. Despite a valiant effort and a raucous home crowd at Chiba Port Arena, the hosts could not contain Hiroshima's balanced offensive attack, which saw five players score in double figures to secure the win. The match was competitive through the first half, with Chiba's dynamic guards keeping pace with Hiroshima's methodical execution. The turning point arrived in the third quarter, where the Dragonflies tightened their defensive screws and went on a 15-4 run, capitalizing on a series of Chiba turnovers. Hiroshima maintained that double-digit cushion throughout the final period, consistently answering any attempt at a Chiba comeback with timely baskets. A key focus was the battle in the frontcourt, where Hiroshima's veteran big man provided a masterclass in post play and rebounding, creating second-chance opportunities and drawing fouls. Chiba's star guard put on a scoring show with a game-high point total, but lacked sufficient support from his teammates. The result sees Hiroshima climb the standings, bolstering their playoff positioning, while Altiri Chiba will need to regroup quickly after a disappointing home loss that highlighted some defensive frailties.
