The totality of Diante Garrett's Sunday performance didn't measure up to his impressive Saturday statistics.
And even though he struggled at times in the series finale against the Sunrockers Shibuya in a clash of B. League teams at Aoyama Gakuin University Memorial Hall, Garrett made the most important play of the game. The final play.
Garrett drilled a long 2-point jumper over the outstretched arms of 213-cm Sunrockers center Robert Sacre with 1 second remaining. That accounted for the game’s final points in a 66-64 Alvark Tokyo victory before a packed house of 4,662, including his father, Dick Garrett, an NBA guard from 1969-74.
