Tatsuya Suzuki had a quiet game on Saturday. The San-en NeoPhoenix point guard's stat line included these numbers: zero points, one assist.
On Sunday, Suzuki flipped the script as an inspired San-en squad bounced back from a 13-point defeat to the Yokohama B-Corsairs and pounced on the hosts 95-76.
Suzuki's imprint was all over this game. The rising star had 20 points and four assists. His energy level and sense of timing made his entire team click on offense, and his outside shooting (4 of 4 from 3-point range) was equally impressive at Yokohama International Swimming Pool.
