The best star brothers in professional basketball, Heo Woong (Busan KCC) and Heo Hoon (Suwon KT), will work together on the same team in the All-Star Game.

The Korea Basketball League (KBL) announced the results of the 2024-2025 KCC Professional Basketball All-Star Game team composition on the 24th.

Seoul SK coach Jeon Hee-cheol of the Kblemong team and Ulsan Hyundai Mobis coach Cho Dong-hyeon of the Gong-Aji team formed the squad themselves.

In accordance with the changed selection method starting this season, 20 All-Stars were selected through fan voting and player voting. In addition, a total of four players, including Jamil Warney, Youngjun Ahn (SK), Nakhyeon Kim (Daegu Korea Gas Corporation), and Sean Long (Hyundai Mobis), were selected as players recommended by the coach.

Afterwards, Coach Jeon and Coach Cho conducted a draft with 24 players.

As a result of the draft, the best five members of the Kblemong team were Heo Woong, Heo Hoon, Yoo Yu-sang (Changwon LG), Ahn Young-jun, and Jamil Warney. The Gong-Aji team’s best 5 consists of Byun Jun-hyung (Anyang Cheongkwanjang), Lee Jeong-hyeon (Goyang Sono), Lee Woo-seok (Hyundai Mobis), Choi Jun-yong (KCC), and Sean Long.

What stands out most is that Heo Woong and Heo Hoon played together for the first time. The two have never been on the same team on the professional stage, and they have not worn the same uniform in event games such as the All-Star Game.
