"Choi Jun-yong came while receiving treatment"

This is what Busan KCC coach Jeon Chang-jin said.

On the 25th, Busan KCC will play a home game with Anyang Jeong Kwan-jang '2024-2025 KCC Professional Basketball' at Sajik Gymnasium in Busan.




There is a desperate need for a change of atmosphere. KCC (9 wins and 11 losses) has recently lost four consecutive games. Some of the main players, including Heo Woong (elbow) and Choi Jun-yong (foot), are not in perfect condition due to injuries.

Ahead of the showdown, the former coach said "I'm not performing well. It's most important to find it quickly. The team's problems are affecting even domestic players. Because of the situations that go back and forth due to injuries, some combination is not harmonized and doesn't fit. The league is long. I'm going to play as if I'm going to match one by one from this game."

Both Hur Woong and Cheo Jun-yong, who are injured, are preparing for the game. Coach Jeon said, `Choi Jun-yong is not supposed to play, but this is why he came from Seoul while receiving treatment. I don't know what the situation will be, but I'm thinking about not spending a lot of time because I'm struggling with my soles. Heo Woong has no problem running because he has an elbow injury, but the play itself is unnatural. It's hard to shoot. I'll go to the start and watch the situation. It's not to the extent that you can't use it at all. That's why he's trying to play."




KCC set up a starting lineup with Jung Chang-young, Lee Ho-hyun, Heo Woong, Lee Seung-hyun, and Leon Williams.

The articles of association against this are also in a bad situation. It's three consecutive losses. Also, 'Core' Byeon Jun-hyung left with a neck bone injury. He is expected to return after the All-Star Game (January 19, 2025).

Coach Choi Seung-tae called for the most basic things in basketball. In defense, he said to box out, use fouls, and do it until the end until it rings 24 seconds. I said, let's put the screen right on the attack"KCC is a strong team anyway. There are people everywhere to burst. It's explosive power. Choi Jun-yong may play. If Choi Jun-yong and Dionte button are put in at the same time, Choi Seung-hee will stop button, Jung Hyo-geun will stop Choi Jun-yong, and Caddy Laren will stop Lee Seung-hyun."




One thing that is welcome is the performance of Park Jung-woong, who was born in 2006. Park Jung-woong, the No. 1 player in this season's rookie draft, has already played nine league games. Coach Choi said "I'm confident. be proud not to be intimidated. I think it will be good if you keep an eye on me. I think it will be most helpful for physical fitness. I think it can sufficiently reduce the burden of physical strength from guards to forwards."

Park Ji-hoon, Choi Sung-won, Jeong Hyo-geun, Jonghyun Lee, and Lahren will be the first in the articles of association.
