The men's national team, without La Geon-ah (independent), who has been responsible for the goal of Korean basketball, will play two friendly matches against Japan next month with a young squad with an 'average age of 24 years.'

On the 4th, the Korea Basketball Association announced the final list of 12 players for Ahn Jun-ho, who will play two away evaluation games with Japan at Ariake Arena in Tokyo on the 5th and 7th of next month. 토토사이트 순위

A large number of veterans, including Laguna, are missing from this list.

La Gun-ah was classified as a 'special naturalized player' after passing the Ministry of Justice's special naturalization review in 2018 and obtaining Korean nationality, and the multi-party contract surrounding La Gun-ah between the KBL-Basketball Association-affiliated team expired last month.

At the end of the KBL board of directors, Laguna's status was confirmed as a foreign player, and he does not yet have a team. It is unknown whether he will be able to continue accompanying Korean basketball.

There is also a possibility that Laguna can continue his career as a player by signing with a foreign team. In this case, it is expected that it will not be easy for the Basketball Association to use Laguna as a Korean player in the form of a multi-party contract like the existing method.

The Basketball Association is not specifically revealing how much progress has been made in administrative procedures or negotiations related to naturalized players, including La Gun-ah. The friendly match against Japan, which is coming up in a month, will be without a naturalized player.

Not only Laguna but also other players in their 30s were not selected by coach Ahn Jun-ho. Kim Jong-gyu (DB), who has been supporting the goal with Laguna, was also not called this time.

Busan KCC players from the 2023-2024 season winning team, including Heo Woong, Choi Jun-yong, Song Kyo-chang, and Lee Seung-hyun, were not selected. 슬롯사이트

KCC, who had a busy schedule leading up to the championship game, will participate in the 'Champions League Asia' hosted by the International Basketball Federation (FIBA) from the 9th to the 15th of this month.

Coach Ahn formed a team with young players instead of veterans. He got his average age down to 24.

Led by Lee Jeong-hyun (Sono), who achieved 5 awards at the 2023-2024 season regular league awards ceremony, Rookie Award winners Yoo Yu-sang (LG), Oh Jae-hyun (SK), Lee Woo-seok, Park Moo-bin (Hyundai Mobis), Moon Jeong-hyeon (KT), and Park In-woong (DB) was selected.

The oldest is Byun Jun-hyung, 28 years old and a member of the Armed Forces Athletic Corps.

Jae-min Yang (Sendai), Yoon-ki Ha, Doo-won Lee (KT), and Won-seok Lee (Samsung) are responsible for the goals left by Laguna and Kim Jong-gyu.

Tall forward Lee Hyeon-joong (Illawarra), who is currently considered the most talented player in Korea, is also young at 24 years old, but was not included in this list. Hyunjoong Lee is planning to participate in the NBA Summer League this summer.

Yeo Jun-seok of Gonzaga University, a prestigious National Collegiate Sports Association (NCAA) team, was also not selected.

The national team will gather at the end of this month and leave for Japan on the 3rd of next month. 안전 토토사이트
