In the first half of Japan, Yuta Watanabe, who missed the match against France on the 17th and the match against Slovenia on the 19th after injuring his right ankle in the match against Angola on the 15th, led the team in both offense and defense. He hits two blocked shots on defense and leads the team in offense with 10 points. However, Japan struggled with shot mistakes and Germany’s height, and ended the first half with 22 points behind.

In the second half, Japan scored six goals in a row, including Watanabe’s scoring streak, and set off a counterattack. In defense, Germany’s attack was suppressed to 16 points, and they entered the final quarter with a 22-point difference.

Japan, who wants to win the first game, cornered Germany with a fierce press, and finally showed their “character” in offense, such as a brilliant combination play by Baba and Watanabe and a three-point shot by Keio Tominaga. But it’s too late. Looking only at the 4th quarter, they showed their determination with a score of 16 to 12, which surpassed their opponent, but the score difference in the first half affected them and they were unable to overturn the game.

In Japan, Watanabe led the team with 20 points, 6 rebounds and 2 blocks, followed by Baba with 15 points, Josh Hawkinson with 9 points and 10 rebounds, and Yuki Kawamura with 7 points and 3 assists.

One of the reasons for Japan’s defeat is the low success rate of shots. In particular, the probability of 3-point shots was 17% (6 out of 35 successful), which was bad.

The second group phase match will be against Finland on the 27th. The key to victory or defeat is how far the shot success rate can be corrected.
