Gaige Prim, a foreign player of professional basketball Ulsan Hyundai Mobis, was referred to the Finance Committee for slandering KBL.
KBL announced on the 6th, "The 29th 6th Finance Committee will be held at the KBL Center in Gangnam-gu, Seoul at 10 a.m. on the 7th to examine Prim's ungentlemanly behavior and KBL slander."
A KBL official said, "We will officially consider Prim's direct criticism of KBL on his personal social media (SNS) regarding the home game against Wonju DB on the 2nd."
Prim was sent off for consecutive technical fouls in about a minute in the third quarter of the home game (82-91 loss) against DB at Dongcheon Gymnasium in Ulsan.
Prim, who complained to the referee about four minutes before the end of the third quarter and was declared the first technical foul, left the court about a minute later after receiving the second technical foul during another protest.
Hyundai Mobis, whose mood subsided after Prim left with a furious look, collapsed in about three minutes, allowing 15 points, and failed to reverse the situation and gave up the game in the fourth quarter.
Shortly after leaving, Prim wrote a sentence on social media that directly hit KBL in profanity and shared it. 스포츠토토
When the second technical foul was declared, an angry Prim spat on the court and strongly protested. The KBL considered the situation an "insignificant act" and decided to review it together with the Finance Committee.
Paris Bath of Suwon KT was also referred to the Financial Services Commission after being admitted to directly slandering KBL.
Bath publicly hit directly in a media interview shortly after the away game (78-76 win) against Seoul SK on the 3rd that the judges ruled against kt.
