Can Hyo-geun Jeong (30·202 cm) become the new center of Jeong Kwan-jang? Having let go of both Moon Seong-gon (KT) and Oh Se-geun (SK), Jeong Kwan-jang has high expectations for ‘all-round forward’ Jeong Hyo-geun.

Jeong Hyo-geun, who debuted in the 2014-2015 season, established himself as the team's main forward with his tall height and outside shooting ability. However, he suffered a knee injury ahead of the 2021-2022 season and was out for the season. Jeong Hyo-geun, who returned in the 2022-2023 season, played in 40 games and averaged 10.5 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 1.5 assists per game.

Jeong Hyo-geun qualified as a free agent after finishing last season and signed with Cheong Kwan-Jang, taking on a new challenge. Jeong Hyo-geun said, “I focused on adapting to the off-season team. “It was a process of many new players coming and getting along with each other,” he said. 바카라사이트닷컴

Cheong Kwan-Jang is the ‘defending champion.’ However, the player composition has changed significantly. Jeong Hyo-geun said, “This is a team that won the championship last season, but it seems like we are in a situation where we cannot help but hear the evaluation that our strength has weakened with the existing players leaving. “They also said that the team is made up of six-man level players,” he said, adding, “But I will make sure that other players, including me, can prove that they are good enough to play basketball.”

Jeong Hyo-geun, who made his belated debut against Hyundai Mobis on the 31st of last month due to pain in the soles of his feet, said, “The coach is very considerate. Plantar fasciitis was something I had a bit of trouble with at first. “I want to have fun playing basketball and help the team achieve good results,” he said. “The coach pursues team basketball.” The team called Cheong Kwan Jang has also shown a strong sense of solidarity. “I will do my best to show a strong side,” he said firmly.

Jeong Hyo-geun was originally scheduled to return to Samsung's away game on the 2nd. However, he visited Jeonggwanjang coach Kim Sang-sik and brought forward the timing of his return. This is because he wanted to regain his sense of the game by playing at least one game as quickly as possible. Coach Kim Sang-sik of Jeong Kwan-jang also said, “(Jeong) Hyo-geun’s will to play was so strong that we couldn’t break it. (His return match) wasn’t bad. “It will get better,” he said, expressing his expectations.
