Senegalese-born center Pape Faye Mour scored a season-high 21 points, including 9-for-10 at the free-throw line, and grabbed 11 rebounds to lead the visiting Yokohama B-Corsairs to a 97-83 victory over the Shinshu Brave Warriors on Saturday night.

The B-Corsairs (23-8) climbed into first place in the 11-team Eastern Conference, and now sit just a few winning percentage points ahead of the Niigata Albirex BB, .742 to .727.

Yokohama, playing only its third game this month, converted 25 of 30 free throws in the series opener in Matsumoto, Nagano Prefecture. Mour has struggled at the line, but capitalized on his scoring chances there in this game. For the season, he's a 55 percent free-throw shooter.
