Point guard Kenny Satterfield has played a starring role in the Saitama Broncos' turnaround, helping the club rattle off seven straight wins from late December until a two-game sweep at the hands of the host Shiga Lakestars last weekend.
In January, Satterfield was the bj-league's best all-around player. He averaged 23.5 points, 9.3 rebounds and 5.5 assists as the Broncos won four of six games.
Tokyo Apache point guard Byron Eaton, meanwhile, had a solid month as the team's floor leader. He averaged 14.1 points and 4.5 assists in helping the Apache win seven of 10 games.
