KCC coach Jeon Chang-jin was sent off for the opening game.

Coach Jeon was ordered to leave immediately after receiving a technical foul for a strong protest with 1:24 left in the second quarter of the men's professional basketball regular league home opening game of the 2024-2025 season at Sajik Indoor Gymnasium in Busan on the 19th.

In the absence of Song Kyo-chang and Choi Jun-yong, KCC did well that day. With 1:43 left, he took the lead by 38-25 and 13 points.



Since then, KCC's atmosphere has risen completely.

However, KCC coach Jeon Chang-jin was given a technical foul with 1:24 left. The reason why Yeo Jun-hyung was not called a foul when he broke through under the basket.



Yeo Jun-hyung hit a layup shot as he broke through, and he was caught tripping over the opponent's defender. However, this scene was not fouled by hard call standards.

Coach Jeon immediately protested strongly, and the umpires blew the first technical foul.



Starting this season, the KBL referee has announced that it will blow a technical foul instead of a warning. After that, he was sent off for the opening game again due to a technical foul.
