Unbelievable energy. Splendid self confidence. Never-wavering faith in his abilities or his teammates.

Those are ingredients to success for Draelon Burns, the Yokohama B-Corsairs' super substitute.

Burns buried a remarkable three buzzer-beating shots to close out the three final quarters, and his team needed every one of them in a tense, 54-52 victory over the Niigata Albirex BB in the Eastern Conference final on Saturday night at Ariake Colosseum. The final dagger was an off-balance 3-meter baseline jumper as three defenders surrounded him in the final second, giving Yokohama the triumph and a trip to the championship game.
