Another week, another chance for a bounce back for Kiefer Ravena and the Yokohama B-Corsairs. 

Ravena aims to help the B-Corsairs regain their winning ways, figuring in a weekend double against the Kyoto Hannaryz in 2024-25 Japan B.League regular season.

The B-Corsairs pulled off a  67-66 thriller in their first duel before dropping the next one, 71-76. Over their last 10 games, the B-Corsairs have gone 5-5, struggling to build momentum at a crucial point in the season. With a 14-21 record, Yokohama is currently on the outside looking in within the Central Conference playoff race. 

For Ravena, consistency will be key in hopes of rediscovering his offensive touch. After dropping 21 points in a 90-67 rout of Nagasaki Velca, he has only reached double digits in two of his next seven outings. 

 

Meanwhile, Kyoto is also in search of a turnaround after a 75-67 loss to the Akita Northern Happinets.
