"Widdy's sense of play."

Wonju DB lost 68-96 to Daegu Korea Gas Corporation in the 2023-2024 professional basketball regular season held at Wonju Gymnasium on the 23rd. They missed their chance to achieve 40 wins. However, they were not hurt because they already confirmed their regular league No. 1 ranking (39 wins and 13 losses).

DB failed to play in the playoffs for three consecutive seasons from the 2020-2021 season. Kim Joo-sung, who was acting coach for the 2022-2023 season, was appointed as the official coach, and hired Han Sang-min, a coach who is well versed in foreign players.

Change in the coaching staff was important, but so was change in the squad. He replaced foreign players first. In particular, he agonized over selecting one option.

The DB, after much thought, chose Didrick Lawson (202 cm, F) as the first option foreign player. Lawson is a foreign player who has been proven in the KBL. He is a player with scoring ability, passing sense, and selfless mind.

Lawson, who experienced two seasons in KBL, is showing off the best performance in DB. Thanks to Lawson, DB also took the lead alone. However, Lawson played too much. So Lawson took the burden of physical strength. Why DB gave Lawson a lot of rest during the A-match break.

After taking a break, Lawson cheered up again. In particular, he scored 47 points in a match against KT in Suwon on the 14th. He drove in a whopping 39 points from the third quarter to extra time. Thanks to Lawson's drive, the DB confirmed the top spot in the regular league against KT. This is the first achievement in six years since the 2017-2018 season.

DB, which has confirmed its regular league No. 1, is taking a breath away. It was also true in the last showdown with Jeong Kwan-jang. Both Kim Jong-kyu (206 cm, C) and Kang Sang-jae (200 cm, F) were absent.

However, Lawson was included in the entry list. However, Lawson was also not included in the starting lineup. DB manager Kim Joo-sung was going to test Jeff Widy (210 cm, C).

Withy showed height. He overwhelmed the opponent team's attack under the basket. He did not hesitate to run and engage in physical fight. He did his part as a control tower.

At 4:02 into the game, he joined the second fastball as a trailer. He finished the pass of Ethan Albano (185 centimeters, G) with a layup of his left hand. He even induced a foul free throw. He managed to make a three-point play with just one fastball. DB also dominated the mood with 11-6.

However, all foreign players in Jeonggwanjang were forward types, and Widdy could not directly prevent them. Min Soo-soo (196 cm, F) had to take the stand. However, he struggled due to Jamil Wilson (203 cm, F) scoring three consecutive points. The reason why DB finished the first quarter 23-25.

Lawson stepped on the court in the second quarter. He played the second quarter without Álvano. Yoo Hyun-joon (178 cm, G) was present, but Lawson had to take responsibility for many things.

Thus, Lawson made defensive rebounds, carried balls, and even assembled a game. Lawson's versatility did not come fast, however. Lawson had to adapt himself to the court and the movement of Korean players was somewhat chaotic.

After failing to make an attack, Lawson stopped Wilson. He blocked Wilson's shot as much as he could. And he reacted to Jeonggwanjang's shot with defensive rebound. He minimized Jeonggwanjang's second chance.

In addition, Lawson quickly sprayed the players running forward after the defensive rebound. DB domestic players who received the ball quickly formed a fastball formation, and DB, which created a fastball camp, easily scored.

The DB then deployed Albano 5 minutes and 9 seconds before the end of the second quarter. A one-two punch consisting of "Lawson-Albano" entered the court for the first time. However, Lawson failed to produce a remarkable performance, and the DB bench called Lawson in 4:12 before the end of the second quarter.

Returning to the court, Widdy focused on the paint zone. He either sat close to the rim due to a fight for seats or tried to score a high probability by joining in fastballs. He also blocked Jeonggwanjang's breakthrough with a block shot as much as possible. He raised the DB from 32-39 to 37-39.

However, Widdie withdrew from the court due to bleeding 41.8 seconds before the end of the second quarter. Lawson had to take charge of the final hours of the second quarter. However, the time was too short. DB faced halftime 41-48, and Lawson had to promise the second half.

Withy stepped up first in the third quarter. He did not display as good defense and rebound as in the first half, but enjoyed the game by scoring under the basket. However, DB slowed down significantly. DB, which lost its strength, fell to 45-53 at 3:43 into the third quarter. DB manager Kim Joo-sung called for the first timeout in the second half.

Nevertheless, the DB fell to 45-55. Lawson was put in 5:22 before the end of the third quarter. Lawson, however, also failed to make his first shot after being substituted. However, he made his first 3-pointer 3:58 before the end of the third quarter, and in the next attack, he made a foul free throw with a fastball participation.

The DB narrowed the gap with the 49-55 Jeonggwanjang with Lawson's consecutive points. Lawson quickly accumulated points after that. 9 points (3 points: 2/4) 1 assist in the third quarter alone. However, the DB failed to overcome the Jeonggwanjang. It finished the third quarter 57-66.

The DB, which was in inferiority, fell to 57-75 in 2 minutes and 3 seconds after the start of the fourth quarter. The defeat deepened. DB did not insist on Lawson. He paid attention to Widdy and backup resources.

Lawson was sitting on the bench watching them play. He finished the game with nine points, four rebounds (attack 1) and one assist at 13:54 seconds. Meanwhile, with 19 points, 10 rebounds (attack 3) and two assists, and two blocks and a steal, Widdie finished the game at 23:14 seconds. 안전 토토사이트
