Several months after he made his sensational B. League debut, teenage phenom Yuki Kawamura is back in the league — in a different jersey.
The 19-year-old has signed with the Yokohama B-Corsairs under the league’s specially designated player rule, meaning he will continue to retain his amateur status. He can play up to three months under the rule and will be eligible to make his B-Corsairs debut in a two-game series against the Shimane Susanoo Magic this weekend in Yonago, Tottori Prefecture.
His home debut will likely be in a two-game series against the Shiga Lakestars at Yokohama International Swimming Pool from Jan. 2-3.
