Suwon KT, the men's professional basketball team, succeeded in escaping the crisis.
KT won 68-62 against Anyang Jeonggwanjang Arena in the '2025-2026 LG Electronics Professional Basketball' held at Jeonggwanjang Arena in Anyang on the 19th.
As a result, KT succeeded in escaping two consecutive losses and recorded 9 wins and 8 losses, and Jeong Kwan-jang lost two consecutive games, 10-6 losses, and was half a game behind third-place Busan KCC.
Last game ahead of the A match break. The two teams had a lot of reasons to put their all into it. First, Jung Kwan-jang, the second-ranked player in the league, had to calm the team's atmosphere and avoid losing consecutive games.
Jeong Kwan-jang was quite shocked, losing 70 to 78 in the previous big match against the leading Changwon LG. If it had won LG, the leading competitor, it would have been an opportunity to reclaim the joint first place, but the failure widened the gap with LG by 1.5 games.
The loss against LG also brought a risk of losing consecutive games. Jeong Kwan-jang's only losing streak is that he won two consecutive games at the beginning of the second round. If he loses to KT on the same day, he may face his second consecutive loss of the season and the biggest crisis this season.
In terms of crisis, KT could not have done less than the articles of association. KT met Jeong Kwan-jang at the risk of repeating its team's most consecutive losses (three consecutive losses) this season. KT, which has been struggling in the second round due to Kim Sun-hyung's injury, recently took a breather in the match against Wonju DB (11th, 65:64 wins) after three consecutive losses, but fell back to back-to-back losses. In particular, the previous match against SK in Seoul (17th, 83 to 85 losses) was nothing less than a tribute due to lack of concentration at the last minute. It would be icing on the cake if we pay back the defeat in the first round and take a break with the leading competitor Jeong Kwan-jang.
However, KT still had concerns. He had to play an away game without putting ace Kim Sun-hyung in on the same day. Kim Sun-hyung, who is suffering from a heel injury, warmed up lightly on the day to check whether he would play, but was still in pain and was excluded from the entry. In the end, KT coach Moon Kyung-eun put Kang Sung-wook, the eighth-ranked rookie draft player, in the entry.

In the game, he countered with a three-point shot. In the second half of the first quarter, when Jeong Kwan-jang chased Jeon Sung-hyun and Johnny O'Brient with three-point relay shots, he responded with three-point shots from Derek Williams and Joel Cagoulan, succeeding in an early lead of 20-16. In the second quarter, when KT tried to run away further with three-point shots by Kagoulangan and Moon Jung-hyun, Jeong Kwan-jang also produced a seesaw game by returning it with the fingertips of O'Brient and Jeon Sung-hyun. As a result, Jeong Kwan-jang succeeded in reversing 36-34 and finished the first half. KT's success rate is not high, but it was satisfied that it made six three-point shots, one more than Jeong Kwan-jang.
The 3-pointer 'Battle' continued in the third quarter. The odds dropped sharply, but they split each other's joys and sorrows. One minute and 15 seconds before the end of the quarter, KT Moon Jung-hyun fired a come-from-behind shot, and Jeong Kwan-jang immediately responded with O'Brient's fourth 3-pointer of the day. The three-point game gave joy and sorrow until the fourth quarter, even in a situation where they were in fact exchanging poor performances by exaggerating the asphyxiation defense. About five minutes before the end of the game, KT Han Hee-won added two three-point shots to lead the game (60-57). When O'Brien responded with a 60-60 tie 3-pointer, Williams scored another 3-pointer 1:42 before the end to lead the 65-60 lead. The victory, which was caught at this time, continued to the last minute, and 9.9 seconds before the end, Kagulan made a "confirmation killing" with a middle shot.
Meanwhile, SK defeated Ulsan Hyundai Mobis 89-68 to win its second straight game.
