After winning just 10 of 60 games this past season, the Levanga Hokkaido are aiming to flip the script.

For Tomohide Utsumi's first full season as head coach, Hokkaido is revamping its roster. Among the changes: the East Division squad on Wednesday announced the signing of veteran power forward Markeith Cummings.

The 192-cm Cummings was one of the top newcomers in the B. League last season. He averaged 23.2 points, 6.6 rebounds and 3.4 assists in 36 games for the Nagoya Diamond Dolphins. He had a 42-point game against the Toyama Grouses in November.
