By Leobert Julian A. de la Peña

Bobby Ray Parks Jr. once again put up stellar numbers after leading the Nagoya Diamond Dolphins to a 101-75 romping win against Mikawa in the 2021-2022 Japan B. League season.

The leftie scoring guard was unstoppable for Nagoya as he contributed a season-high 23 points, seven rebounds, two assists, and one steal during the much-needed win.

The huge outing for Parks Jr. also marked his fourth start for Nagoya and the Filipino superstar made the most out of it as he immediately put on the offensive numbers.

Parks Jr. quickly caught his shooting rhythm in the first quarter as he poured in seven points in the first 10 minutes of the ball game.

The offensive onslaught would continue as Parks Jr. ballooned Nagoya’s lead to 24 points after converting three straight three-pointers in the third frame.

Despite going silent on the offensive end in the next minutes of the game, Parks Jr. contributed on the defensive end and also orchestrated their offense.

Backstopping Parks Jr. are Scott Eatherton with 21 big points on 9/14 shooting from the field and Tenketsu Harimoto who had 15 points off three drained treys.

Parks Jr. and the Diamond Dolphins will be looking to sustain their momentum as they face Shimaneon December 4, 2021.
