KB Stars balanced the playoffs by beating Woori Bank with Nagata Moe's dramatic buzzer beater.
KB scored a dramatic 58-57 comeback in the second playoff game against Woori Bank at Asan Yi Sun-shin Gymnasium on the 4th when Nagata's bank shot to the buzzer beater was sucked into the rim with 3.2 seconds left before the end of the game. As a result, they set the series record to 1 win and 1 loss, gaining an advantage in playing the third and fourth games in Cheongju, their home.
KB Stars coach Kim Wan-soo said, `The players worked so hard. There were some areas where the defense was not good, but most of them performed well""Heo Ye-eun in the first half and Kang Yi-seul and Nagata in the second half were able to achieve a very valuable victory."Joyed.
"Yum Yoon-ah and Na Yoon-jung were out for the season due to injuries, but six-man Lee Chae-eun, Yang Ji-soo and Lee Yoon-mi are filling it up too well in offense and defense. Especially when Kang Yi-seul was fouled four times in the third quarter, they did really well"I also thanked the bench members.
Especially for Nagata, who succeeded in the last buzzer beater "Nagata played his best game until today following the last three points against BNK in the regular league."I practiced making Nagata attack when there was no operation time in the last attack, but he did a great job" he complimented.
Coach Kim said, "(Like today's game, we have no choice but to solve it by defense. If you go to Cheongju, you can receive passionate support, so I think the players can put down the pressure and enjoy it more"Anyway, I think the victory in the second game will give the players a lot of confidence."
