He has the best athletic ability in the league. He was the head of the airlift. Shooting, dribbling, and off-the-ball movements were also observed. However, his signature play, which is clear, was still blurry.
SK was a Warnie-centered team. Ahn Young-joon's role last season was actually close to 3&D. I sometimes performed ballhandlers, but I wasn't good at them. In the presence of Warney, Ahn Young-joon's attack option by ball handling was less efficient.
However, it was clear that Warney's dependence should be reduced. SK was the biggest issue to maximize competitiveness at the top. How Ahn Young-joon did it was important.
This season, Ahn Young-joon has upgraded to the next level. Still, his excellent athletic ability and ability to participate in transitions were the best. He also properly handled the ball by handoff and the resulting breakthrough and mid-range shooting options. In addition, he was the leader of the action in transition basketball, SK's main weapon this season. The defense was still solid. The result was sweet. He was the first MVP of his career.
Ahn Young-joon said "It's a bittersweet"
"I don't think I can be 100% satisfied playing one season. Of course, there are some unsatisfactory parts of this season, so I said I felt a bittersweet about that."
It is true that Ahn Young-joon had a subtle competitive composition with linear after the 5th round. However, after today's MVP announcement, linear came first and congratulated him. I was so thankful. I also felt sorry."
"I think it's been a season where I've grown as a player because I've had a lot of ups and downs this season. There were not many injuries."
Ahn Young-joon will be eligible for FA after this season. He said "FA" was also a motivation. I commuted when I was in the army. I exercised a lot then. During the military, I worked out in support of evil. I think the FA helped a lot."
