Unable to overcome starter's goose egg, Diggin Heat fall to Osaka Blues in 132.3-105.4 rout

Hampered by a 0-point performance from Odell Beckham Jr., Diggin Heat were unable to overcome Osaka Blues, which cruised to a 132.3-105.4 victory. Osaka Blues earned an early 3.0-point lead on Thursday. Diggin Heat came back to take the lead late afternoon Sunday, powered by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense (19 points) and Ezekiel Elliott (17.7). Not to be deterred, Osaka Blues made a run later that night, as Marquise Brown (23.3 points) put them back on top once and for all. Osaka Blues (1-1) will look to sustain their winning ways against Dome Patrollers, while Diggin Heat (1-1) attempt to develop some positive momentum against Purple Mountain.
