It took 8 minutes and 45 seconds for a healthy Oh Se-geun (36, KGC) to win.
Anyang KGC Ginseng Corporation defeated the Goyang Carrot Jumpers 99-43 in the ‘2022-2023 SKT Adot Pro Basketball Playoff Semifinals 1st Game’ held at Anyang Gymnasium on the 13th. The 56-point victory is a new record for most wins in one game in professional basketball history. Carrot’s 43 points was the lowest ever in the playoffs.
KGC’s starting lineup consisted of Byun Jun-hyeong, Bae Byung-jun, Moon Seong-gon, Oh Se-geun, and Omari Spellman. However, the time these best members ran properly was only about 8 minutes. KGC, which took a huge lead by 27-9 from the first quarter, won by 56 points from the second quarter despite using a large number of substitute players.스포츠토토
Oh Se-geun is still a big man who has no rival in professional basketball as long as he stays healthy. Oh Se-geun went straight to the quarterfinals and took a break for two weeks. Here, Oh Se-geun played only 8 minutes and 45 seconds in the first game and passed the baton to Han Seung-hee. Han Seung-hee exploded 14 points, the most since his professional debut. KGC didn’t even need Oh Se-geun to run more.
After the game, KGC coach Kim Sang-shik said, “Han Seung-hee was good at rebounding and joining the fast attack. Thanks to that, he gave Oh Se-geun time to rest.”
Han Seung-hee, who posted 14 points and 6 rebounds, said, “I didn’t know I could run this much. (Oh) Se-geun takes responsibility for making sure his brother doesn’t get sick, and he will endure for 15-20 minutes.”
Carrot, who is already weak in the big man, has to deal with the ‘healthy’ Oh Se-geun throughout the series. If KGC closes the series early and saves Oh Se-geun as much as possible, it will also work in favor of winning the championship. / jasonseo34@osen.co.kr
