Comment from GM Goki Ishida
For the 2026-27 season, Yokohama Excellence has signed a contract with Aaron Ragen.
He is a player with Japanese nationality who has been performing excellently at overseas universities, using his 3-point shooting as a weapon. I had him do a workout once in Japan, and his shooting touch left a strong impression on me.
I look forward to him getting used to life in Japan and Japanese basketball, and to him showcasing his special shooting next season.
Please continue to support Aaron Ragen.
