Niigata Albirex BB forward Thomas Kennedy is one of the bj-league's most dependable scorers.
The University of Detroit Mercy product can carry his team for key stretches on offense, and in Saturday's 87-70 triumph over the Gunma Crane Thunders, Kennedy delivered a big reminder of that in Nagaoka, Niigata Prefecture.
He finished with 32 points, one shy of his season high, as the Albirex won their third straight game. Kennedy drained 8 of 10 shots from 2-point range and buried 4 of 5 from long range. He grabbed eight rebounds. He played a vital role on Yokohama's 2012-13 championship-winning club.
