Dwight Ramos and Toyama completed their weekend sweep of Hiroshima in the 2021-22 B.League season, taking an 89-75 win, Sunday at Toyama City Gymnasium.

The Grouses maintained a double-digit lead to close out the game.

Johnson led the charge for Toyama with 19 points and 13 rebounds. Meanwhile, Smith also got a double-double with 18 points and 13 rebounds.

Mavunga also tallied 16 points, seven rebounds, and six assists.
