Busan KCC Egis has appointed a new senior coach, completing its coaching staff restructuring. The vacancy left by former senior coach Lee Gyu-seop (49), who moved to become the head coach of Wonju DB, will be filled by former commentator Kim Do-soo (45).

The Busan KCC Egis professional basketball team officially announced on the 18th that it has appointed former commentator Kim Do-soo as its new senior coach.

KCC recently faced a vacancy in its coaching staff after senior coach Lee Gyu-seop, who had been leading the team, was appointed as the head coach of Wonju DB. The KCC club quickly began searching for a replacement and selected former commentator Kim Do-soo, who possesses extensive coaching experience and exceptional analytical skills, as the ideal candidate.

New Senior Coach Kim Do-soo began his professional career in 2004 when he was selected 4th overall in the first round of the KBL rookie draft by Incheon Electroland. He later played for Busan KT (now Suwon KT) and Goyang Orions before retiring.

His post-retirement career has also been solid. Starting his coaching journey with Goyang Orions, Senior Coach Kim has proven his meticulous coaching abilities by working as a coach at various prestigious teams across both men's and women's professional leagues, including Bucheon Hanawon Q (WKBL), Suwon KT, and Ulsan Hyundai Mobis. Recently, he served as a commentator for tvN SPORTS, stepping back to analyze games with precision and communicate with fans from a slightly removed perspective.

A KCC club official expressed confidence, stating, "We expect Senior Coach Kim Do-soo's rich on-court experience and meticulous coaching to bring new synergy to the team."

With the vacancy caused by Coach Lee Gyu-seop's departure quickly filled by the "Veteran Coach" Kim Do-soo, fans are closely watching what kind of synergy KCC will demonstrate in the upcoming new season.
