Busan KCC is just one win away from winning its first ever title as the 5th place team in the regular league.
KCC defeated KT 96-90 in the third game of the 2023-24 CheongKwanJang Professional Basketball Championship held at Sajik Gymnasium in Busan on the 3rd.
KCC won both games 3 and 4 at home, moving one step closer to winning the championship with a series record of 3 wins and 1 loss. All 10 teams that recorded 3 wins and 1 loss in the previous championship game won the championship.
If KCC rises to the top, it will make history by becoming the first champion as the 5th place team in the regular season. In addition, he will ascend to the throne for the 6th time in 13 years since becoming champion in the 2010-11 season.
Following the third game held on the 1st, 11,217 people, the largest audience this season, visited Sajik Gymnasium again on this day, and the home team KCC displayed even performance from the main players befitting its reputation as a ‘super team’.
Choi Jun-yong scored the most points with 24 points, and La Gun-ah (19 points, 14 rebounds) and Heo Woong (14 points, 10 assists) also recorded double-doubles and combined for victory.
In KT, Heo Hoon fought against the cold and did his best with 33 points, 4 rebounds, and 5 assists, but was unable to prevent the team from losing. KT, who lost both of their away games, was in a disadvantageous situation where they had to win all three remaining games.
KCC was unable to stop Heo Hoon and Paris Bass early in the game and was dragged down. KCC, which started 4-0, gave up 6 consecutive points to Heo Hoon and Bass, allowing a comeback. KCC allowed consecutive 3-point shots to Moon Seong-gon and Heo Hoon at the end of the first quarter, giving them a 16-28 lead.
KCC was unable to stop Bass and Heo Hoon in the second quarter and finished the first half with a score of 40-48.
However, KCC exploded with firepower in the third quarter and turned the game around. In the third quarter alone, he scored 37 points, including 6 3-pointers.
Heo Woong and La Geon-ah scored 7 points in a row at the beginning of the 3rd quarter to lead KCC to 57-55, but Choi Jun-yong hit 3-pointers in a row in the middle to end the 3rd quarter with an 11-point lead, 77-66.
KCC trailed by two points in the middle of the fourth quarter, giving up points to Bass and Heo Hoon, but Hohyun Lee scored consecutive points, widening the lead again to 93-87. KCC put a wedge in the game when Choi Jun-yong made a 3-point shot 35 seconds before the end of the game.
The 5th game of the championship will be held in Suwon, KT’s home stadium, after a day’s rest.
