Energetic veteran Ryusei Shinoyama said that he did not get upset with the announcement because he is competing in an anything-can-happen professional sports circuit.

One day after the news that the ownership of the Kawasaki Brave Thunders would be handed from Toshiba Corporation to DeNA Corporation next year, the team's point guard and captain addressed the media about the change for the traditional powerhouse club.

The 29-year-old said that the team members were informed about it after their Tuesday practice by Masami Araki, the president of the ballclub, Toshiba Business and Life Service Corporation (TBLS).
