MANILA, Philippines — The struggle continues for Kobe Paras and the Niigata Albirex BB on Saturday as they suffered their 12th straight loss, falling to the Akita Northern Happinets, 79-62.

Elsewhere, Thirdy Ravena served the first of a two-game suspension as the San-En NeoPhoenix absorbed a 104-71 blowout to the Seahorses Mikawa.
Ravena was slapped with the suspension and a fine for his actions in San-En's close loss to fellow Filipino import Dwight Ramos' Toyama Grouses.
In B2, Kemark Cariño's Aomori Watts arrested an 11-game losing streak against Juan Gomez de Liaño and the Earthfriends Tokyo Z, 89-65.
Cariño was benched in the win while Gomez de Liaño was limited to just two points, three assists and two rebounds in 24 minutes of action.
