“I’ll be able to spread my wings.” I’m looking forward to the teamwork of Onuaku with the guard…

The event was attended by the team’s front desk, including DB owner Jung Jong-pyo, as well as the team’s players and executives of the headquarters. In addition, Wonju Mayor Won Kang-soo attended the launching ceremony and delivered a message of gratitude.

The Love House volunteer activity, which began in 2011, is a volunteer activity in which the DB team directly improves the residential environment, such as plating and replacing floorboards, by visiting families with Fromi volunteers composed of executives and employees of the headquarters.

Kim Ju-seong, who was in the same group as Lee Kwan-hee, also actively wallpapers despite the sweltering heat. A former top franchise star in the DB, Kim has been participating in the program for a long time.

“I love house activities that I do every year are helpful to my players,” Kim said with a smile. “I can give it to the local community, and these activities make it a process where teamwork can be strengthened and the team can unite as one.”

After discussing volunteer programs, he shifted the subject to basketball. Kim Joo-sung, who anchored the team as an official coach last season, led the DB team to the first regular league championship in six years. Although he failed to win the combined league title, it was a season that he could receive a passing score or higher.

“It is a little different from last season, when the off-season started early. I want to take it similar to the schedule I did last year, but the schedule has become very tight, so I have to coordinate well between them,” Kim said.

The foreign player with option 1 for DB next season is Chinanu Onuaku. He is an traditional center with strong inside strength and presence in defense. He is a completely different style from Didrick Lawson who won the MVP award last season. DB’s game plan should also be changed accordingly.

“Korean players have already gotten used to it. However, foreign players have changed. Given the nature of the KBL, foreign players account for a significant portion of the team’s strength. I feel like I am newly appointed. That’s why I have to work harder and prepare for the season steadily with the players,” Kim said.

He is not good at shooting from outside, but if defense is focused on Onuaku, who is powerful under the basket, other players could have many chances. Onuaku is a player who has the ability to pass, and coach Kim is also looking forward to this.

“I think the presence of Onuaku will increase the probability of scoring, including the fielding rate. He is also a good player who allows passes to the outside,” coach Kim said.

Regarding foreign players with two options, he replied, “Since Onuaku is a big man, I try to recruit him as a forward or a scorer.”

The lineup of Korean players also remained unchanged. Kim Jong-gyu, Kang Sang-jae, and Lee Sun-bin signed contracts with key players, and recruited Kim Si-rae and Park Bong-jin. Lee Kwan-hee joined the team through a trade.

“I think the Korean players’ performance is almost the same as last year’s. I think they have maintained their capacity well. However, as foreign players have changed, we will have to wait until the season to see which direction they will flow. Like Kim Si-rae, Park Bong-jin and Lee Kwan-hee, we will understand their strengths and weaknesses and make good use of them. For now, we need to better understand their tendencies through training. We have yet to decide how to utilize them in detail. Since Onuaku is also coming, we will make changes to the members according to the team’s tactics,” Kim said.

From Albano to Yoo Hyun-joon and Kim Si-rae, who won MVP award for Korean players. The DB’s point guards are competitive in both quantity and quality. They are capable of saving Onuaku even more.

Coach Kim said, “Anyway, having guard resources is an advantage in dragging the regular league. I think Lee Sun-bano is basically a player who will play a role, and I think our guards will be able to spread their wings more as Onuaku comes.”

In addition, he said, “Kim Si-rae is in rehabilitation, but I think he will be able to match his physical condition without any problems during the season. I think we can see the effect in that part because he has good ability and has played a lot with good centers. Yoo Hyun-joon said, “The synergy with Jeff Weedy was so good, so I think it would be good to make good use of the strengths of Yoo Hyun-joon and Kim Si-rae.”
