KT Hur Hoon is doing a layup.
He aims to advance to the championship game for the first time in his life.
The Korean pro basketball team won the 2023-2024 playoff against Hyundai Mobis by winning three games and one loss to reach the semifinal PO. KT, which was particularly weak in spring basketball, smiled at the PO series for the first time in 10 years since 2014.
It was also a meaningful victory for Hur. Hur, who joined KT in 2017 as the top draft pick, has never had a chance to win a PO. During the 2017-2018 season when he made his debut, KT ranked at the bottom. In the 2018-2019 season, he won his first PO as the sixth-ranked player, but lost to LG for the first time with two wins and three losses. He continued his PO hopes by ranking sixth in the 2019-2020 season, but ended the game prematurely due to the novel coronavirus infection disease (COVID-19). Hur was awarded the first MVP in his career in this season.
In the 2020-2021 season, the Korean pro-baseball team ranked sixth once again in the PO league, but lost three games to KGC (currently Jeonggwanjang). Back then, KGC continued its strides by banking on Jarrod Salinger. Back then, Hur displayed his fighting spirit even when dealing with a thigh injury. In the 2021-2022 season, he directly advanced to the PO by ranking second in the regular season. However, he was stopped by KGC again this time. KT showed particularly weak performance in PO games by allowing three games even after winning the first game.
After he was discharged from the military, he had another chance. He challenged himself along with his powerful partner Paris Bath this season. He was a bit shaky at the end of the regular season, and emerged on the PO stage as the third place. In the series against Hyundai Mobis, he displayed discrepancy with Bath until the second game. However, things have changed since the third game. Rumor has it that Hur, who showed poor performance in the second game, blamed himself a lot.
He played the role of ace by scoring 18 points in the third game and 22 points in the fourth game. He also played his role in keeping Hyundai Mobis in check. He has an average of 20.5 points, 2.0 rebounds, and 4.3 assists in four PO games.
KT Huh Hoon is playing.
In front of Heo Hoon, who found confidence in the PO for the sixth round, LG, who ranked second, is holding out. LG has continued its long winning streak at the end of the season with outstanding teamwork. As solid defense is its advantage, Heo Hoon's clever play is more important than ever.
Ahead of the PO match, Hur said, "I am more desperate than anyone else in preparing for the PO. I want to win the game. I am confident again this time. Players are also strong. Strategies and tactics are important, but will and desperation are needed. Who gives more is important. I will prepare well." 메이저 토토사이트
