Professional basketball Daegu Korea Gas Corporation Pegasus (hereinafter referred to as Korea Gas Corporation) called Anyang KGC Ginseng Corporation, the league leader, into their home on the 12th and fought hard, but failed to break the losing streak.
Korea Gas Corporation lost 64-70 in the home game against Anyang KGC in the 2022-2023 SKT A-Dot professional basketball regular league held at the Daegu Indoor Gymnasium that day and fell into a swamp of 8 consecutive losses.
The match against KGC changed to 2 wins and 3 losses with the loss that day.
Korea Gas Corporation’s starting members consisted of Lee Won-dae, Chabawi, Jeon Hyeon-woo, Jung Hyo-geun, and Murphy Holloway, with Lee Dae-sung and Lee Dae-heon missing in the aftermath of the away match against the Seoul SK Knights the previous day (11th).
As if conscious of the team’s seven-game losing streak, the players put pressure on KGC from the start of the first quarter, and Lee Won-dae’s first 2-point shot, followed by Holloway’s free throw from KGC Abando, signaled a fresh start.
KOGAS, which had a 7-4 lead with 4 minutes left in the first quarter, added Lee Dae-seong instead of Jeon Hyun-woo to add variety to the offense.
KOGAS ended the first quarter with a 15-11 lead with players scoring evenly.
From the beginning of the second quarter, Lee Dae-heon’s 2-point shot followed by Devon Scott’s fantastic pass and Lee Dae-sung’s 2-point shot followed, overwhelming KGC.
Even in the middle of the 2nd quarter, KOGAS continued its good trend, winning one free throw and the right to attack with a T-foul (technical foul) from KGC Daryl Monroe, and finished the 2nd quarter with a 39-29 lead over KGC by 10 points.
In the 3rd quarter, when Korea Gas Corporation ran away until the beginning, the flow of KGC followed.
With Lee Dae-seong and Lee Dae-heon scoring, Scott’s concentration in charge of the behind-the-goal tasks such as rebounding and screens shone, but KGC’s pursuit began in the middle of the third quarter.
The final score at the end of the third quarter was 55-50.
KGC reduced the score to 5 points, but KOGAS still led the game in the 4th quarter.
In the 4th quarter, which became the watershed of the game, Korea Gas Corporation’s lack of support caught their ankles again.
Korea Gas Corporation, which was playing a seesaw game, was caught on a team foul early with about 3 minutes left in the 4th quarter, and the free throws in succession had a great impact on the match.
With 3 minutes and 15 seconds left, KGC Spellman dedicated a free throw due to a team foul, and Lee Dae-sung even made a mistake in the next attack, handing over the team atmosphere.
With two minutes left, KGC Spellman scored a 2-point shot to tie the score, and in the process of rebounding in the next attack, Lee Dae-heon made a par with Oh Se-geun and dedicated a free throw to allow the first turnaround of the game.
The game, which had been walking on thin ice in the 4th quarter, quickly turned 64-69 with 30 seconds left to end the game, and the weight of the game slanted.
At the end of the game, Lee Dae-heon fired a 3-point shot that saved the fire of the chase, but it failed to pass the rim and the game ended with a final score of 64-70.
Korea Gas Corporation is ahead of a home game against Ulsan Hyundai Mobis on the 16th.
