‘Yeo Jun -seok+Lee Hyun Joong 43 points’, ‘One Team Play’ Men’s basketball team team wins in Japan
“Wow ~” In the time before the game, even if he tried the dunk, the shouts broke out. It is Yeo Jun -seok who is playing at Seattle University in the United States, dreaming of entering the NBA. Yeo Jun -suk joined the Korean men’s basketball team ahead of the International Basketball Federation Asia Cup (August 5-17), which will be held in August. In the evaluation match on the 11th, he responded to his expectations with 18 points (6 splattering three assists).
The men’s basketball team won 91-77 in Japan with Yeo Jun-suk in the first leg of the evaluation in Anyang Jeonggwanjang Arena. Lee Hyun -jung (Ilawara), who is challenging the US professional basketball with Yeo Jun -suk, played an active role in catching 25 points and six splatters. The two players who joined the national team in four years after 2021 led the team’s victory with 43 points. Representatives of Korea’s professional basketball (KBL) also played their part, including Lee Seung -hyun (8 points, 5 splatters), Lee Jung -hyun (17 points, 4 splattered three assists), and organic award (19 goals and 3 assists).
Korea was aggressive from the start. In less than a minute of the game, Lee Hyun -joong’s three stores were overpowered. Although he gave two points, he added scores in the first quarter, including Lee Jung-hyun 3 points and 2 points of Yeo Jun-seok. However, it was because of the urgent mind, and the defense collapsed in the second quarter and eventually reversed to 42-45. Lee Hyun -joong said, “I talked a lot with the players in the locker room.” It worked. At the start of the third quarter, the organic award had a three-point show, and the team, who finished the third quarter with 67-65, hit again in the fourth quarter. The fourth quarter was once 18 points.
It was big to drive 18 three -point shots. It exploded six in the first quarter. There were five organic statues, four Lee Hyun -joong, and four Lee Jung -hyun. Lee Hyun -joong said in a mixed zone after the match, “The 18 secrets of three -point shots are trusting each other.” Ahn Jun -ho said in a press conference after the game, “It is the first time that three stores have 50% of the team.”
In the match, ‘One Team Korea’, pursued by Ahn Jun -ho, was properly demonstrated. The players had a hands and feet. After three minutes of starting the fourth quarter, Lee Seung -hyun caught quickly when the organic ball came out of the rim. Lee Seung -hyun also shined with the players’ play, leaving three minutes of the game and throwing along the ball. Lee Seung -hyun told the Hankyoreh before the game, “I will show you the game as a game.” KBSN commentator, Son Dae -bum, who relayed the game, said that the first game was “well harmonized.”
But the right to provide was left as a homework. Korea was pushed to Japan 31-39 in the splashing of the day. He gave 17 attacks. Ahn Jun -ho said, “You have to own the ball through the rebound to score, but there is no hope. The shot is always curved. In order to develop Korean male basketball further, it must be pressured to defend the opponent’s shooting success rate, and to have equal fights in the rebound and the right to provide.”
Many spectators were on the stadium and responded to each of the players’ actions. After 1 minute and 30 seconds of the match, the crowd poured out the biggest shout on the dunk shot of Yeo Jun -seok.
The national team will play the second leg of the match against Japan in the same place on the 13th. On the 18th and 20th, he works with Qatar. Yeo Jun -seok said, “I think I can gain practical experience and get confidence through the remaining three evaluation games.”
