KT won a thrilling 78-76 victory over LG in the '2024-2025 KCC Professional Basketball' held at Changwon Gymnasium on the 14th.
KT was in a tight spot, catching up with all the 14-point leads at the end of the game. With 0.5 seconds left before the end of the game, LG Doo Kyung-min's three-point shot made a foul, and the team was on the verge of losing the entire band. However, as the foul challenge was successful, KT Huh Hoon was found to have accurately blocked the ball, sighing with relief.
Heo Hoon played 31 minutes and scored 10 points and 10 assists to take the lead in winning consecutive games.
After the game, Heo Hoon said "I'm so good ahead of the break. I think I need to rest well and prepare well for what I lack," he said.
Regarding the foul challenge situation, he recalled that it was a dizzying moment.
Heo Hoon "Surprised. I didn't think it was a foul. It could have been a foul by touching it even a little bit, but fortunately, it wasn't a foul, he swept his chest.
Heo Hoon said "You have to score elsewhere than me. Someone else doesn't deserve a handler. He explained, "I'm trying to take as many balls as possible and make plays that can save other players."
I believed that I could develop by steadily trying.
Heo Hoon continued to give even if he couldn't score, and as he did so, the players also revived. That's a good sign. Among them, thank you so much for Park Joon-young's good work.
It's also true that you're tired.
Heo Hoon said "The team is usually very considerate. I take on the player with the weakest offense. Today, I had no choice but to defend against Doo Kyung-min. I was already in a bad condition, but I fell even more."
Still, a seven-minute break in the second quarter helped later.
Heo Hoon said "Having a short break helped me gain strength in the second half. My brothers are good at defending the ace, so I save energy in defense and then I'm putting my energy into offense. I'm grateful for it. He lowered himself.
