On a star-studded roster, Chiba Jets Funabashi shooting guard Shigehiro Taguchi can be overlooked at times.

That wasn't possible on Sunday, though. Taguchi captured the attention of fans and put his stamp on the final outcome with a game-changing performance.

The veteran perimeter sniper delivered a bold reminder of his skills in the series finale against the Kyoto Hannaryz. He scored a season-best 16 points, nailed 4 of 5 3-point range and two clutch free throws in crunch time as the Jets rallied for a pulse-rising 87-84 victory before a packed house of 5,551.
