After three straight trips to the Final Four, the Kyoto Hannaryz are hungry to capture a title in coach Honoo Hamaguchi's fourth season at the helm.

Winning bj-league games keeps that focus in the spotlight, and the unbeaten Kyoto Hannaryz defeated the Bambitious Nara 79-62 on Friday evening.

Forward Kevin Kotzur, who attended NCAA Division II school St. Mary's in Texas, led the Hannaryz (5-0), with 17 points on 8-for-12 shooting and grabbed 10 rebounds. Frontcourt mate Reggie Warren also had a double-double, finishing with 13 points and 16 boards, plus three assists.
