Samsung Life Insurance Co., Woori Bank Co., Ltd. Wins Season's Masugal, as it drove it to a second consecutive loss





Samsung Life Insurance won its first victory of the season. On the other hand, Woori Bank, the No. 1 regular league team last season, lost two consecutive games.

Samsung Life Insurance won 63-44 with three scorers, including Bae Hye-yoon, Lee Hae-ran, and Kang Yoo-rim, at the match against Woori Bank in the `BNK Financial 2025-2026 Women's Professional Basketball' held at Asan Yi Sun-shin Gymnasium on the 22nd.




Samsung Life began to lead 16-8 in the first quarter as Kang Yu-rim's inner and outer guns revived. In the second quarter, Cho Su-ah and Nanami Hamanishi also took advantage of the rapid transition of offense and defense to open the score, leading the first half 33-20.

Woori Bank, whose field-fighting rate was sluggish at 20% in the first half alone, began to follow in the third quarter. Based on Kim Dan-bi's under-the-goal score and Lee Min-ji's steady scoring support, who is expected to be the team's main scorer along with Kim Dan-bi this season, he succeeded in chasing by a single-digit score difference.

However, in the end, Woori Bank was hampered by a terrible field battle. Samsung Life Insurance's Lee Hae-ran, who emerged as a major scorer after Kiana Smith's sudden retirement, scored under the basket and in the mid-range, while Woori Bank rarely scored except for Kim Dan-bi, widening the gap to double digits again and failing to narrow it down at the end.




Three players, Lee Hae-ran scored 17 points, Kang Yoo-rim 16 points, and Bae Hye-yoon 15 points, scored double-digit points, and in particular, Lee Hae-ran scored 14 rebounds to succeed in the double-double.

Woori Bank lost 45 to 66 to Hana Bank due to a severe lack of field-fighting rates, with Kim Dan-bi playing her part with 14 points and 15 rebounds, and Lee Min-ji making only one successful 3-point shot attempt, followed by less than 50 points in two consecutive games. It is the second time since the 2017-2018 season that Woori Bank has lost two consecutive games since Coach Wi Sung-woo took office. Woori Bank succeeded in reorganizing quickly by winning five consecutive games after two consecutive losses at the time, and eventually won the first place in the regular league and the championship.
