Filipino basketball rising star Thirdy Ravena finished his two-week quarantine in his apartment located in Japan after recovering from COVID-19 and is set to rejoin the ailing San-en NeoPhoenix who badly missed his presence.

After getting the notice of clearance from his team, Ravena will finally be allowed to join the NeoPhoenix in a much-needed back-to-back stretch this weekend, December 12 to 13.

Ravena will be attending one practice session before flying with the team to Hokkaido as they will try to get out of their losing slump.

NeoPhoenix is currently on an eight-game losing streak and San-en coaching staff are leaning on the fresh legs of Ravena to lift them to a victory.

The first-ever Asian import signed in the Japan B. League missed a total of four games while undergoing home quarantine and San-en is currently at the bottom of the standings with a 2-17 win-loss league record.
