SK won 63-60 against Seoul Samsung in the '2024-2025 KCC Professional Basketball' held at Jamsil Student Gymnasium in Seoul on the 25th.
SK (15 wins and 5 losses), which has won two consecutive games, widened the gap with second-place Ulsan Hyundai Mobis (14 wins and 7 losses) by 1.5 games, while Samsung lost four consecutive games.
Christmas 'S-Derby' between the lone leader SK and the lowest-ranked Samsung. Rather, it was SK who decided 'revenge blood war'. It's because of the humiliation he suffered ten days ago. On the 15th, SK lost 84-88 in the 'S-Derby', stopping its winning streak for more than two years since December 6, 2022, at '12'. SK, which became the victim of Samsung's 「Big fish hunt」, also accepted its team's third consecutive win this season, the most by a team.
Since then, SK has eased its shock by winning the Anyang Jeonggwanjang match (77 to 73) on the 21st, and Samsung has again lost three consecutive games and fallen to the bottom and met with its third 'S-Derby' of the season. Thinking of the pain just 10 days ago, SK deserved to shout 'I met you well'.

"I remember continuing to win the Christmas S-Derby since I took over as head coach (April 2021)," he said, recalling a pleasant memory. No wonder SK has been making a strange rule at Christmas S-Derby. Samsung continued to win Christmas matches for four seasons from the 2017-2018 season when S-Derby was officially introduced to the 2020-2021 season. Since then, SK's victory for three consecutive seasons from the 2021-2022 season when coach Jeon made his debut to last year has turned the game upside down.

However, it seems to have been 'Seasoning' to enhance the pleasure of 'Seongtan Gift'. SK showed a thrilling comeback drama in the second half. SK, which was tied at 45-45, took advantage of the momentum it lost with Oh Se-geun's rare three-point shot in a row. After that, SK Kim Sun-hyung made an exquisite solo breakthrough 21.2 seconds before the end of the game, which was 61-60, ending the match. It was a Christmas present for the 5,225-strong crowd that filled the gym.
In the previous game, Busan KCC defeated Jeong Kwan-jang 94-68 and escaped from four consecutive losses, while Goyang Sono beat Wonju DB 87-81, winning three consecutive games.
