B1 Niigata Pallas fun of shocking debut, “best friend confrontation” with childhood friend San-en Ravena

B1 Niigata Albirex BB will be away on the 6th, San-en We practiced for the Neo-Phoenix match (9th and 10th, Hamamatsu Arena) at Nishikawa General Gymnasium. SF Corby Pallas (24) is looking forward to a “best friend showdown” with San-en SG Saadi Ravena (24). Although he is a childhood friend of his native Philippines, he faces with different feelings on the court.

I respect Ravena. “It’s very aggressive and once it starts to score, it doesn’t stop.” Ravena has been with San-en since last season and gave us B-League information when Pallas signed with Niigata. I have known him since he was 7 years old and keep in touch with him on a daily basis even after coming to Japan. However, it is divided into “the basket is different. The opponent”.

Niigata is the opening card, Kyoto 1 win and 1 loss. Palas made a shocking debut with 25 points in the first race. For the first away game of the season, Fujitaka Hiraoka (47) says, “The first game is important. You can never lose in a row.” Paras was also conscious of playing more than Ravena, saying, “Prepare well.” The last direct confrontation was in 19 when he belonged to the University of the Philippines, when he played against Ravena of the University of Athens de Manila. It will be his first match as a professional, but he tightened his mind, saying, “I will carry out the plan created by the team.” [Shinichiro Saito]
