Yang Jun-woo accumulated valuable experience in the last game of the season.
Yang Jun-woo was nominated by Incheon Electronic Land (currently Daegu Korea Gas Corporation) in the 1st round and 4th place in the 2020 KBL Rookie Draft. During his time at Sungkyunkwan University, he was evaluated as a versatile point guard who broke through, passed, and managed the game. E-Land exercised the lottery nomination right to him and expressed a lot of expectations.
However, his pro wall was high. 먹튀검증He was versatile, but his weakness was that he had no distinct strengths. As a result, he averaged only 8:06 appearances in 35 games over three seasons. This season, he mainly played the D-League stage, and recorded 10.1 points, 4.1 rebounds and 4.9 assists while playing an average of 32 minutes and 6 seconds in 8 games. With Lee Dae-sung and Sam Joseph Belrangel on the team, Yang Jun-woo had no chance.
It wasn’t until the end of the season that a golden opportunity came. Lee Dae-sung, the team’s ace, had to leave due to a thigh injury. Yang Jun-woo, who played for the first time in a long time in Wonju DB on the 25th, recorded 5 points, 2 assists and 3 steals in 16 minutes and 34 seconds. In the match against Seoul Samsung on the 27th, he played 26 minutes and 7 seconds, leaving 3 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists.
The 2022-2023 SKT A-Dot Professional Basketball Jeonju KCC and Gas Corporation’s 6th round confrontation held at the Jeonju Gymnasium on the 29th. Yang Jun-woo was listed on the starting list. In his first start since his professional debut, he recorded 8 points and 7 assists, playing 32 minutes and 24 seconds. 32 minutes and 24 seconds is the longest playing time since his professional debut, and his points and assists are career highs.
Before the game, KOGAS coach Yoo Do-hoon said of Yang Jun-woo, “In a transition game or a two-man game, you must be able to cope with the opponent’s defense through a lot of movement. If he develops in defense, whether it is a slide or down defense, he will be able to receive more opportunities.”
Yang Jun-woo accumulated valuable experience in the last game of the regular season. In the next season, he will show a step-up in growth and pay attention to whether he will be able to occupy a place in the gas construction guard team.
