Pre-season game vs. Toyama Grouses...



Yesterday was Ray's first big pre-season game vs. BJ League's Toyama Grouses (ps: "BJ" means Basketball Japan).  The game was close until the last quarter when the Lake Stars were able to drop a bunch and win 85-72!

Ray played really well, starting the game and hitting all of his free throws.  After the game, his team captain told him that he thinks he's the core of the team and is eager to see Ray take even more of a leadership role.  A high compliment.

I tried to load his best highlights, but there were many.  Enjoy!  

Tip off... (#1 for Toyama was a big dude!!)
Dropping his free throws in...
Cool new uniforms, eh?
This is "Magnee" the mascot... a sort of catfish??...

This is why Ray wears padded shorts!  Watch him get back up, get the rebound over three other guys, and put it in!
At the buzzer!!!
Two blocks and a forced turnover- yeah!!!
