Despite suffering a severe knee injury, Ramu Tokashiki has not yet abandoned her hopes of competing at the Summer Olympics.
Tokashiki is undisputedly Japan’s best player, but tore her right ACL in December. Even so, her name was among those listed last week when the Japan Basketball Association revealed the 22 players who would participate in a national team training camp.
Tokashiki, a seven-time Women’s Japan Basketball League MVP, recently met with the media online and said she has been focusing on her rehab and has not practiced with the Tom Hovasse-led national team during the training camp.
