Currently, KT is on high alert for its fight for second place. It suffered a come-from-behind loss to KCC on Tuesday, and lost to Changwon LG after failing to fill the void left by Paris Bath after being hit in the face by a pitch on Tuesday. It has a gap of 1.5 games with LG (28 wins and 17 losses), and only two games with SK (28 wins and 18 losses) with No. 4 Seoul SK (28 wins and 18 losses). If its losing streak gets prolonged, it could slide to fourth place. Therefore, it needs a win no matter what.
KT has high expectations for Bath’s performance. Bath is the ace player of KT who displayed stellar performance in 44 regular-league games with an average of 25.3 points, 10.7 rebounds, and 4.6 rebounds. Against KCC, he recorded an impressive record of 34.5 points, 13.5 rebounds, and 5.3 assists in four games on average. He is no different from KCC’s killer. He overwhelmed Ra Gun-ah who is weak in outer defense and Alize DeShawn Johnson in a matchup. If Bath shows power again this time, KT’s chances of winning will increase.
Against this backdrop, KCC is not in a good situation. It is because forward Choi Joon-yong and Song Kyo-chang left at the same time. Choi was diagnosed with cartilage damage in his wrist for two weeks, and his toe injury that he wore during the 2020-2021 season recurred and he is taking rest. They are KCC’s core players in both offense and defense. Hence, the team is expected to face difficulties in ranking matches at the end of this season. 사설 토토사이트
Everyone expressed concern, but KCC’s prowess was unexpectedly strong. The team won a complete victory over Sono in Goyang 117-85, the first game without Choi Jun-yong and Song Kyo-chang. At the center of the victory were Ra Gun-ah (26 points, 14 rebounds, two assists) and Heo Woong (5 31 points, three-point shots, five and 10 assists). They led the team to victory by taking charge of under the basket and outside the basket, respectively. If Ra Gun-ah and Heo Woong give strength against KT, they have a good chance of winning.
Meanwhile, at the same time, LG and Daegu Korea Gas Corporation will face off at Changwon Gymnasium. I wonder what kind of performance Korea Gas Corporation will show without Andrew Nicholson will meet LG. At Jamsil Gymnasium, Seoul Samsung and Wonju DB will face off for the last time of the season. DB, which has five magic numbers left, will try to reduce the magic number against the lowest-ranked Samsung.
