"I really want to get an MVP."

Kang Sang-jae of the Wonju DB of professional basketball made the remarks after beating Suwon KT 107-103 in the 2023-2024 season regular league match held at Wonju Gymnasium in Gangwon Province on the 14th.

With the victory, DB confirmed the top spot in the regular league, and Kang Sang-jae was definitely responsible for DB's bottom of the net with eight points, 14 rebounds, and four assists.

Kang Sang-jae, who is in his third season in the DB in his 7th year as a professional, has an average of 32 minutes and 51 seconds as captain this season, recording 14.1 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 4.3 assists.

The 3-point shooting success rate is 41.1%, so it has both height and shot accuracy.

Kang Sang-jae did not hide his desire to be the MVP of a domestic player.

"I can't win unless I'm the winning team," Kang said. "Lee Sun-bano (a competitor for the MVP of Korean players) did a really good job, but I have no choice but to be greedy because I'm a player," he said. "I really want to win it."

DB manager Kim Joo-sung also cited Kang Sang-jae as the top contributor to winning the regular league.

Coach Kim praised Kang Sang-jae as the captain, saying, "I think he led the seniors and juniors well as a middle-aged man," and said, "I'm very proud as a coach because he is in full bloom with his original skills."

Kang Sang-jae believed that losing nearly 10kg in the off-season was a "godly move."

"I expected DB's performance to depend on what I do," he said. "It is true that I doubted myself while training during the offseason. I thought it was my last chance in my basketball career, and I prepared with confidence in the coach."

"It's not close to perfection, but I think we won the DB because we showed activity and performance," he said.

Kang Sang-jae, who said, "No one picked us as the favorite before the season," credited DB's victory, saying, "Because all team members, including Kim Jong-kyu, Lee Sun-bano, and Didric Lawson, played 100% of their roles in their respective positions."

Kang Sang-jae, who changed his position this season, also strengthened his will, saying, "If I prepare desperately to become a perfect No. 3 and develop every season, I will be a player close to perfection."

Lawson, who is aiming for the MVP of foreign players, said, "I set my goal to advance to the playoffs in the DB, and I'm glad I won the regular season," before expressing his desire to win the award, saying, "Thanks to everyone including Kang Sang-jae, Kim Jong-kyu, and Albano helping me."메이저 토토사이트
