Kim Jong-un (Bucheon Hana Bank), who exploded a dramatic buzzer beater, delivered his victory speech.
Hana Bank came from behind to beat Shinhan Bank 58-56 in the home game of "Hana Bank 2024-2025 Women's Professional Basketball" held at Bucheon Indoor Gymnasium on the 2nd.
Kim Jong Un contributed the most to the victory. He truly turned the tables in the last minute, when his heart was pounding. With seven seconds left before the game ended, Hana Bank allowed Jihyun Shin to score under the basket with a lead of 56-54. Furthermore, the bank allowed the basket count, on the verge of defeat.
However, Jihyun Shin missed the extra free throw and Ishida Yuzuki grabbed the ball. Only five seconds left. Yuzuki quickly passed to Kim when he was running fast, and Kim beat Iduna before shooting. With the ball piercing the rim, a dramatic buzzer beater has been completed. Kim clenched his fists and roared, running to and hugging the coach Kim Do-wan.
Kim Jong Un scored eight points, five rebounds, and three assists along with dramatic buzzer beaters. Jinan scored 16 points, 17 rebounds, and five assists, while Ishida Yuzuki contributed 14 points, two rebounds, and two assists.
After the match, Kim Jong Un said in a press conference, "I feel so good to win my first match of the new year. Today's match was really important." 토토사이트
"I talked a lot about me, Yang In-young and Jinan's big three, but I liked the opponent's lead. So in the third quarter, the coach used the three of us at the same time. It was difficult, but I don't think all of them had bad mobility. I think if we catch the defense, we can get more advantages," he said.
When asked about the situation when he burst the dramatic buzzer beater, he said, "It was a tie anyway, and the opponent couldn't use a foul operation. Yuzuki dribbled and asked me to do it. My matchup was Lee Doona, and I thought I could beat her enough," he said. "Seven seconds is a long time. I focused and shot and entered the game. How happy he must have been to embrace the coach, and it was his first time. People would have thought he won Game 7 of the championship game."
Hana Bank, which ended its two-game losing streak, moved up one place from last place to tied for fifth with five wins and 11 losses. As its performance in the first half of the year fell short of expectations, Kim Jong Un vowed to do his best. "Actually, during the break after the first half of the year, the mood was not good. The performance was so poor. Play from experience is the most important thing in women's basketball, but if you push ahead with it with determination and fighting power, there is no team that can't beat you," he said.
"The coach also called senior players including Yang In-young and Kim Si-on to talk a lot. I also nagged senior players saying they should take responsibility," he said. "Thank you everyone for rebounding and defense until the end of the game."
Hana Bank, which is tied for fifth, is in a position to advance to the playoff. "It doesn't matter which team we beat, and we have to win one more game. We lost too many games in the first half. We have to ride the last train of the PO no matter what. This is the war. If we win like this, we will gain confidence. We will win every game with all our life and death," Kim said.
