Veteran forward David Palmer has made a profound impact for the Ryukyu Golden Kings this season.
Signed after the season began, Palmer made his debut for Ryukyu on Nov. 6, a 93-76 win over the Oita HeatDevils.
Since then, the Golden Kings have gone 8-1 after a rough 2-4 start before Palmer's first game. Their lone loss in that span was an 84-53 defeat to the always dangerous Osaka Evessa on Nov. 21.
