Ahn Young-jun led the team to its 12th straight win.
The Seoul SK Knights won 64-57 against the Changwon LG Sakers in the 2023-2024 Korean Basketball League on Monday at Changwon Gymnasium.
SK continues its winning streak despite a tough schedule. The win extended their winning streak to 12 games. 카지노사이트 Ahn Young-joon’s 16 points and six rebounds provided the backbone.
“We were so tired,” Ahn said. Even after the first half, we were struggling a lot, but we played with the mindset of doing hard work one by one and overcame it, so we became stronger,” said Ahn.
Coach Jeon Hee-chul gave the credit for the victory to his players, saying that he was only a spoon.
Ahn Young-jun said, “They’ve been working so hard on defense up front. (Laughs.) Bukyung-i and Segeun-i are doing the same, and they’re actively participating in rebounding even though they’re not feeling well. I thought about giving up in the second quarter, but my brothers were working so hard that I followed suit.”
Ahn struggled to find his shot, but he made three three-pointers on the day.
“I had a bad shooting feeling, but the coach caught it. I tried everything I’ve done in the past, but when he talked to me, it worked. I felt grateful to the coach.
He helped me with the timing. I changed one timing and it went in,” he said.
The key to SK‘s success is their desire to continue their winning streak.
“It’s a winning streak. I’m excited to continue the streak, but I don’t know how long it will last. We’re on a 12-game winning streak, so it would be a shame to lose. I think all the players are thinking the same thing. We’ve been talking amongst ourselves a lot about how it would be a shame to lose here because we have one or two games left before the All-Star break. I had a hard time today, so I was more encouraging. I said in the last interview that I was upset with the coach, but today he gave me a lot of compliments, so I think that was good. I smiled and said that I was upset, but the coach handled it well, so I let it go,” he explained.
