Haakim Johnson's work shift ended with an exclamation point on Saturday.
He grabbed an offensive rebound with 1 second remaining and scored on a putback to beat the buzzer and lift the Toyama Grouses to a 74-72 home victory over the Rizing Fukuoka.
Prior to Johnson's rebound, teammate Takeshi Mito had missed a shot with 2 seconds left in the fourth quarter. But instead of having to play overtime, Toyama (10-19) celebrated a dramatic victory against one of the bj-league's most dangerous foes.
