Name: チャンピオン・バスケットゲーム (Champion basket game)
Year: ~1969
Company: 昭和遊園 (Showa Yuen)
This machine's picture looks identical to Taito's Crown Basketball 901.

It is listed in both the 1969 and 1972 machine directories.

I wonder if Showa Yuen were acting as a distributor for Crown Basketball, but giving it their own name? Maybe it was done to get the Taito machines into certain regional markets?
