The Korean Professional Basketball Federation (KBL) closed the registration of players for the 2024-2025 season on the afternoon of the 28th and announced the aggregated contents. As a result, Moon Sung-gon received an annual salary of 750 million won, ranking first in KBL pay. In second place was Kang Sang-jae, a star of Wonju DB, and Heo Hoon of KT. The annual salary of the two players is 700 million won.
In addition, Oh Jae-hyun (Seoul SK), who recorded the highest increase in pay in the 2024-2025 season, recorded a whopping 210% increase from 100 million won to 310 million won in the new season. Last season's Altoran-like performance was reflected.
Meanwhile, Busan KCC, the championship team of last season, will apply soft caps in excess of salary cap (2.9 billion won). As a result, 64.5 million won, or 30% of the excess amount, will be paid to the Youth Basketball Development Fund. In addition, Ahn Young-joon (SK) and Bae Byung-joon (Director Jeong) failed to reach an agreement with their clubs and applied for remuneration adjustment.
In addition, four of the nine Asian quarter players whose contracts ended in the 2023-2024 season have renewed their contracts and four have given up renewing their contracts. Lens Abando, who refused to renew his contract, will temporarily lose his KBL player status. As a result, he is not allowed to play for one year at his original club and for three years at other clubs.
