“I’m excited to go back to Yokohama and play next season,” said the former NLEX swingman in a press release by the team.
“We want to be a championship team and I believe we have the chance to do so. I hope we can stay healthy and bring a championship to Yokohama.”
Ravena jumped ship from Shiga to Yokohama just last season and helped the B-Corsairs finish with a 24-26 record.
This, after fueling the Lakes to the B2 championship just the year before.
While Ravena’s season with Yokohama didn’t translate to a title like his campaign with Shiga, Ravena will another try to help his team pull off a championship run.
Over the course of 53 games played last season, the Ateneo product averaged 9.8 points, 3.8 assists and 1.9 rebounds per game.
Last week, another Filipino import Kai Sotto and the Koshigaya Alphas agreed to a contract extension for next season.
