Spellman Returns After Successful Diet, Leads Lebanon’s OQT semifinal… Hot Tears After Victory

Spellman led Lebanon to the semifinals with a different appearance from last year’s World Cup.

Lebanon’s men’s basketball team won 74-70 against Angola in Group A of the qualifying tournament for the 2024 Paris Olympics in Valencia, Spain, on the 5th (Korea Standard Time).

Omari Spelman, a naturalized Lebanese player, is familiar to Korean fans as well. He played as a foreign player for three seasons from the 2021-2022 season in Anyang, KBL.

Spellman’s remarkable talent and poor self-management made him the first round of the NBA. Spellman’s move was extreme. 슬롯사이트 순위

As a one-option foreign player in the 2022-2023 season, he led Jeong Kwan-jang to an integrated victory, and soon after, he appeared in a heavy weight at the 2023 FIBA World Cup, where he wore a Lebanese uniform, shocking. He was a naturalized player who had to play an important role, but he did not perform as well as expected.

The issue affected the 2023-2024 season. Spellman, who suffered from overweight issues and even suffered injury, left his post before the season began, and was forced out after a long absence due to sluggish performance even after the return. His performance and work ethic were both the worst.

Spellman, who had not been with his team for a long time since leaving the club, returned to the national team match against Lebanon. In a warm-up match against Lithuania in June, he appeared to be significantly thinner than before. Instead of moving slowly, he succeeded in dieting and focused on his physical management.

Lebanon lost to Spain, a strong team, in the first group qualifying match of the qualifying tournament. It was expected that the team would be far behind Spain, the strongest team in Europe, in a move that was expected. The match against Angola was the final match to qualify for the semifinal, in which the second-ranked team in the group among the three teams was awarded. While Spain has already qualified for the top spot, Lebanon and Angola clashed for the remaining spot.

Spellman, who failed to fully demonstrate his power in the match against Spain, flew wildly against Angola. Based on his aggressive moves, he scored 22 points and 13 rebounds, achieving 20-10, taking the lead in the team’s victory. As for the performance of the day, it reminded me of his team’s victory in the KBL.

Spellman, who had a strong will to win, stood out from the beginning. He made a series of three-point shots with a good sense of shooting and put in a hot one-hand dunk that dampened the opponent’s momentum. He also accumulated 13 points, eight rebounds and two blocks in the first half amid his presence in defense.

Lebanon, which had been struggling in the first half, slowed down in the third quarter and allowed its team to come from behind, but recovered its momentum in the fourth quarter. Spellman succeeded in a crucial three-point shot in the fourth quarter and displayed his signature roaring ceremony.

Lebanon, which well prevented Angola from chasing until the last minute, won the one-wood bridge match and advanced to the semifinals as the second-ranked team in the group. Spellman, who was overwhelmed with emotion, even shed tears while wearing the Lebanese flag while sharing joy with his teammates after the match.
