After missing their weekend slate due to quarantine, Dwight Ramos returned to Toyama on Wednesday.
However, Ramos’ return was not enough to lift the Grouses past the Osaka Evessa, suffering a 66-76 upset in the 2021-22 B.League season at Ookini Arena Maishima.
Ramos was plugged in as a starter for the contest, playing 20 minutes for nine points on 4-of-8 shooting with five rebounds.
It has been a roller-coaster month for the Grouses though, losing its second game in four tries.
Osaka went up to 15-20 in the standings, technically above the 16-23 Toyama in the west.
Up next for the Grouses are the Kyoto Hannaryz on Wednesday at Toyama City Gymnasium.
