Chiba Jets Dominate Hiroshima Dragonflies in Home Rout
The Chiba Jets put on a dominant performance at home on April 26, 2026, defeating the Hiroshima Dragonflies 88-74 in a lopsided B1 League contest. The Jets controlled the action from start to finish, using a stifling defense and efficient offense to hand the Dragonflies a decisive defeat. The victory reinforced Chiba’s status as one of the title contenders this season.
Match Overview
The Jets came out firing, building a double-digit lead by the end of the first quarter. Their ball movement and three-point shooting overwhelmed Hiroshima’s defense, which struggled to get stops. The Dragonflies attempted to claw back in the second quarter, cutting the lead to single digits, but Chiba responded with a 10-0 run to close the half. In the second half, the Jets’ defensive intensity increased, limiting Hiroshima to just 34 points after the break.
Standout Players

- Hiroshima Dragonflies: Despite the loss, their shooting guard managed 18 points and 5 assists, but received insufficient support. The Dragonflies’ inability to score in the paint was a critical weakness.
Tactical Analysis
Chiba’s game plan was centered on pushing the pace and exploiting mismatches in transition. They converted 12 turnovers into 20 fast-break points. Defensively, the Jets packed the lane and forced Hiroshima to attempt tough shots from the perimeter, where they shot just 25% from three-point range. The rebounding battle was thoroughly won by Chiba, who grabbed 45 boards to Hiroshima’s 32.
Implications for the B1 League
This comfortable win keeps the Chiba Jets near the top of the B1 League standings and enhances their reputation as a defensive powerhouse.
