Seo Myung-jin, who scored a dramatic winning shot, expressed his gratitude to Kim Hyun-min.
Ulsan Hyundai Mobis Seo Myung-jin played an active role in the 2022-2023 SKT A-Dot Pro Basketball Jeonju KCC match held at Jeonju Gymnasium on the 12th with 13 points and 3 assists, including two 3-point shots. In particular, he hit a dramatic comeback 3-pointer at the end of the 4th quarter and became the number one contributor to the victory.
Seo Myung-jin said, “Now the third round has begun, and every game is desperate and precious to us. It was a weak appearance in the only match, but it feels good to show that we are not pushed back and do well together. It’s unfortunate that we lost in the previous game, but it’s good to have a chance to rise to victory today (12th).”
On this day, Hyundai Mobis had an advantage over KCC until the third quarter. However, in the 4th quarter, KCC’s counterattack led by Heo Woong led to a struggle, and Lee Seung-hyun gave a free throw, allowing a turnaround with 41 seconds left in the game. However, Seo Myung-jin scored a decisive 3-point shot with 31 seconds left, leading Hyundai Mobis to win again.
“That was not the original pattern. At first, (Ronjay) Avarientos was primarily playing 2v2. If I couldn’t catch the ball, I was playing 2-2, but the ball fell backwards. Still, (Lee) Wooseok gave me a good pass. Before that, I was worried because I couldn’t make a free throw, but actually (Kim) Hyun-min is grateful to his brother. The shot from the bench is short, so they told me to shoot it up. So as soon as I caught it, the thing I was going to shoot went in.” Seohyun’s words 스포츠토토
This season, the signature team is averaging 8.2 points. This is a decrease compared to last season (10.1 points). Hyundai Mobis manager Cho Dong-hyun said, “In the meantime, Myung-jin’s attack was passive because Avarientos was there. He’s still ordering though. You have to be more active. He said he wished he had been more aggressive this morning as well. He also expressed his wish, saying, “I hope that he will gain confidence through this game.”
Regarding this, Seo Myung-jin said, “I have confidence in shooting every game. This season, the field goal success rate was poor, so I was concerned. There is always the confidence and belief that you will get in as long as you practice. I’ll shoot when I get my chance, but Avarientos or (Gage) Prim are the players that will be exciting. (Cho Dong-hyun) Like the director said, I never thought that he was passive.”
Lastly, Seo Myung-jin said, “As in the previous game, I got a free throw in the game, but I regret that I couldn’t put it in. I hear the story that I am weak in the game, but I believe that I will grow more with today as an opportunity. And he laughed, saying, “I have confidence in the game and I wonder if it will be more fun.”
