Professional basketball team Seoul SK beat Anyang Jeonggwanjang to advance to the East Asian Super League (EASL) final for the second consecutive year. SK defeated Jeonggwanjang 94-79 in the 2023-24 EASL semifinals at Hoops Dome in Cebu, Philippines, on the 8th (Korea time). SK used the rebound, which had a 44-25 lead, as leverage, with Jamil Warney contributing 38 points and 16 rebounds. Oh scored 20 points, including five 3-pointers, to brilliantly fill the void left by Kim Sun-hyung. Leon Williams also had a double-double, with 11 points and 12 rebounds. "Although Robert Carter scored 21 points and nine rebounds, Jamil Wilson scored 14 points and Lens Abando scored 11 points, other Korean players' performance was regrettable as Choi Sung-won (11 points) scored the most." SK, which lost to Chung in the final round of the first championship in March last year, will seek its first championship title. It took 1 million U.S. dollars to win the championship. Even if it is the runner-up, it will pocket 500,000 dollars. SK will compete with the Chiba Jets of Japan, who beat the New Taipei Kings 92-84 on the day, at 8 p.m. on the 10th. Chiba is the team that ranked first in Group A with six wins overall, including two wins against Chung in Group A. Chung will play the third-place match against New Taipei at 5 p.m. on the same day. The third-place winner alone will receive 250,000 U.S. dollars in prize money. The prize money is higher than the KBL regular No. 1 ranking (100 million won) and the championship title (100 million won). The fourth-place winner will receive no prize money. SK trailed 23-26 in the first quarter due to a drop in the success rate of field throws, but Williams led the team in rebound and Warney led the team in attack to turn the game around 45-50 in the second quarter to finish the first half. Jeong Gwan-jang said, "Abando, which received enthusiastic support from home fans, operated an outer shot, but it was not enough to reverse the trend. Entering the fourth quarter with a 67-58 lead, SK had a 14-point deficit due to Warney's outside shot with 4:49 left in the game to grab the victory. Chung had to chase after Chung Hyo-geun (10 points) with consecutive 3-pointers and Carter's score, but SK widened the gap to double digits again with Warney's floater cutting through the rim 2:51 before the end. One minute and 22 seconds before the end, Ahn Young-joon (13 points) scored a dunk following a steal to seal the victory.

Will Son Heung-min cause a "goal storm" in Bangkok again

Attention is focusing on whether Son will fly from Bangkok. He visited Bangkok with his Tottenham players in July last year and packed his bags without playing even a second. The story goes like this. Tottenham was on a tour of Asia ahead of the opening of the 2023-2024 season. First of all, the new coach Ange Postecoglou stopped in his home country of Australia, especially in the west Perth, to play friendly matches with West Ham United. Soccer is not yet the most popular sport in Australia. Rugby, tennis, and remote soccer (Australian rugby) are popular, and soccer is on the back burner. Nevertheless, Son Heung-min and Harry Kane, who was the captain of the team at the time, received a great welcome and headed to Bangkok after finishing the match against West Ham. Tottenham was supposed to play a friendly match with Leicester City in Bangkok. Leicester City was demoted from the Premier League at the time and dropped to the Championship (part 2), but as the club's owner was Thai, he frequently visited Bangkok and elsewhere, and this time he was supposed to play with Tottenham. Son Heung-min also took time off from practice, including missing an A-match in June last year due to hernia surgery, and also missed the match against West Ham, so the match against Leicester City was expected to be his return match.
