He is indeed an elite foreign player. Paris Bass (31), who led Suwon KT to a three-game winning streak, displayed his characteristic overflowing confidence and dignified demeanor.

On the 7th, in a matchup against Daegu Korea Gas Corporation, Bass performed brilliantly with 31 points, 11 rebounds, and 7 assists, driving the team back to a .500 win-loss record and securing a three-game winning streak.

In his post-game interview as the player of the game, Bass said, "It feels really good to be on a three-game winning streak," adding, "I hope we can keep riding this positive momentum and continue our run."

Regarding the management of the starting lineup, he showed deep trust in the head coach. Addressing the tactical change where Porter takes the court first and Bass enters later, he stated, "I fully respect the coach's decision," and added, "Since the results have been good, I will continue to follow the coach's judgment completely."

On this day, Bass engaged in a fierce psychological battle with opposing foreign player Kevy Aluma. After sinking a dunk, he roared while looking at his opponent or engaged in aggressive physical play. Bass bluntly stated, "Aluma is not my match," and revealed strong confidence by saying, "I don't care who my matchup is, nor do I worry about it. I focused solely on winning the game for the team."

When asked to look back on Round 1 and whether there were any matchup players in the league who were particularly difficult or manageable, he emphasized, "There are many good players in the current KBL league, but I don't specifically worry about particular matchups," adding, "My only concern is winning for the team."

Regarding the fact that every team in the league brings out defensive plans to shut him down, he promised an even more evolved performance. Bass explained, "In Round 1, my shooting touch was somewhat off, and I struggled to handle opposing defenses," but noted, "I have perfectly reinforced that area through training. Thanks to my teammates instilling a lot of confidence in me, I am now playing the game much more smoothly and with composure."

He also expressed satisfaction with his recent trend of leading team play by averaging eight assists over the last three games, in addition to his individual scoring. Bass said, "An increase in my assist numbers is a really good thing for the team," adding, "It is pleasing to see my teammates attempt and succeed at shots confidently when I pass to them. Their confidence gives me great reassurance. I will continue to create opportunities for my teammates in the remaining rounds."

Regarding the team's situation of not being able to field full strength due to a series of injuries among key players, he showed a sense of responsibility. Bass stated, "Since our best five has never been fully operational, it is true that Porter's and my roles have become more important," and shared, "Porter and I haven't had extensive conversations specifically, but as we coordinate with each other and the team chemistry clicks properly, it is leading to good results."
