A Taisho Team in 1992 (E Team)

Group of boys just starting out in a Japanese American basketball league based in San Francisco.

"J-League basketball still gives you a sense of community.
[On the purpose of J-Leagues now:] It's one of the few things that keeps the community together." -Bob Hamaguchi

Evidently, this is true. If you look closely you will see that the coach on the left is actually a player from the 1969 S.F. Drakes photo!
