There's nothing new about Nick Fazekas scoring points in bunches. It happens all the time.

The former NBA big man did it again on Friday night — 33 points to be precise. The Kawasaki Brave Thunders center also grabbed 14 rebounds and handed out six assists to lead the hosts to an 87-78 victory over the Levanga Hokkaido at Todoroki Arena.

Kawasaki improved to 17-3, winning its ninth straight game. Hokkaido slipped to 5-15.
