Kiefer Ravena and his Shiga Lakestars squad were dealt a heartbreaking defeat, 93-91, on Sunday as they suffered a sweep from the SeaHorses Mikawa this weekend in the Japan B.League.

The Lakestars were up 91-89 with less than a minute left before the SeaHorses' Davante Gardner made two late shots that handed them the victory.

Mikawa also defeated Shiga, 108-71, in a blowout on Saturday.

Ravena tried to steal the win with a triple in the endgame but failed to do so. The Lakestars were leading 48-45 at the end of the first half.
