Fast forward to the top of KCC professional basketball
It is noteworthy that Busan is gathering energy to win professional sports for the first time in 27 years.
Busan KCC defeated Suwon kt 90-73, gaining the upper hand in the first round of the 2023-24 KBL championship game (four wins out of seven games) held on the 27th. The team that won the first round of the championship finally won 18 out of 26 times. KCC grabbed 69.2% of the chances of winning the championship.
Regardless of the probability, KCC showed off a strong performance that gave a foreboding to its championship in the first game. Although it was lagging very narrowly behind in rebound and outer field, it scored a whopping 20 points through quick attack, and allowed 29 points and 10 rebounds to its main gun, Paris Bath, but Heo Hoon tied the score to 12 points. On the other hand, five players including Heo Woong, Song Kyo-chang (both 17 points), Ra Gun-ah, Alize DeShawn Johnson (both 14 points and 9 rebounds), and Choi Jun-yong (both 12 points and 7 assists) played evenly. Above all, KCC succeeded in arranging physical stamina without any player who played for more than 30 minutes through thorough rotation, as Heo Woong only played the longest time of 29 minutes and 22 seconds.
If KCC, which had Busan as its home ground starting this season, wins the championship after leaving Jeonju for 22 years, it will have the first time in the KBL history that the fifth-ranked team in the regular league will become the champion. It is also meaningful for the team from Busan, where it is located. It is the first time for a professional team from Busan to lift the trophy for the first time in 27 years. It is virtually the first time in the 21st century that a Busan team will win one of the four major professional sports.
Busan was famous for the “球” that the Lotte Giants represent. However, the performance was not as good as their popularity. They won only two titles, in 1984 and 1992. They also advanced to the Korean Series in 1995 and 1999.
The last time the Korean pro soccer team won the regular league was when the Daewoo Royals won three gold medals (regular league, FA Cup, and League Cup) in 1997. Daewoo, which had won four K-League titles, three league cups, and one Asian Champions League title, has continued to play Busan I’Park since 2000, but has not had good results going up and down the first and second parts. Although it won the Korea Cup (FA Cup) in 2004, it is not as good as it gets.
In professional basketball, Busan Kia was the runner-up to Daejeon Hyundai for two consecutive seasons after winning the first championship of the professional league in 1997, and then moved to Ulsan in 2001 to become Hyundai Mobis. Since then, KT has had Busan as its home ground, including when it was KTF, but moved to Suwon in 2021. In the case of KT, it was only the runner-up at the 2006-07 season after reaching the championship. It is interesting that Daejeon Hyundai is the predecessor of the new KCC in Busan, and KT is the opponent team against the championship.
The women’s professional basketball was founded in 2019 by BNK based in Busan, but its best performance was the runner-up in the 2022-23 season, and there has been no team based in Busan so far in professional volleyball.
