Busan KCC Egis "core guard" Heo Woong (33) returned to Wonju DB Promy and "Basketball Spirit" held on December 31 last year, but he will be absent again. Heels off for a while due to a bone bruise.
Coach Lee Sang-min met with reporters ahead of the fourth round of the "2025-2026 LG Electronics Professional Basketball" away game against the Anyang Jeonggwanjang Red Boosters at Anyang Jeonggwan Arena in Anyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, on the afternoon of the 4th. I hope that Choi Jin-kwang and Lee Ho-hyun will also read," he said.
Busan KCC is simply an "injury ward." Heo Woong returned from a heel injury on December 31, 2025, the previous game, in "Basketball Youngshin", but his performance was not very good. In the end, he played 15 minutes and 25 seconds, but scored only two points. It seemed to be an aftermath of his poor physical condition. Choi Jun-yong and Song Kyo-chang, the "core forwards," are also away.
Coach Lee Sang-min said, "We will have to wait a little longer for the players to come back. At least the next four to five games are likely to go under this system. (2 options) Since there is also a gap between Hernández, he may be able to play only as a domestic player for a minute or two in the middle of the game. In fact, it's true that it's the worst situation because Hernandez is missing. Still, I don't think there's anything worse for the rest of the season," he added.
On this day, KCC set Kim Dong-hyun, Choi Jin-kwang, and Huh Hoon as three players, and Sean Long and Jang Jae-seok as starters. Against this, the articles of association appointed Johnny O'Brient, Byun Jun-hyung, Park Ji-hoon, Kim Young-hyun, and Kim Jong-kyu as starters.
