Description
KBL announced the list of 46 free agents (FA) including Kang Sang-jae, Kim Jong-kyu (DB), Lee Jae-do (LG), and Park Ji-hoon (Director Jeong) on the 7th.
The most notable name is Lee Dae-sung, who plays for Shihosu Mikawa in the Japanese B-League.
If you are an "uncontracted player" according to the KBL regulations, such as Lee Dae-sung, you must apply for FA disclosure in person. In other words, you voluntarily participated in the FA market.
He is a guard who boasts league-class skills, ranking first in scoring among domestic players for two consecutive seasons.
In the 2022-2023 season, he played in 51 regular league games as a member of the Daegu Korea Gas Corporation, averaging 18.1 points and showing the best scoring ability among domestic players.
In the 2021-2022 season when he played for Goyang Orion, he was also the No. 1 player among domestic players with 17 points.
He left Korea saying he wanted "competition and growth" and joined Mikawa as an Asian quarter player, averaging 7.2 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 1.9 assists in the regular league this season.
Mikawa finished the regular league in second place in the central region with 36 wins and 24 losses, and is set to become the first Korean player to play in the Japanese League playoffs.
Attention is focusing on whether Lee Dae-sung will return to Korea Gas Corporation, which voluntarily gave up his right to renew his contract with him, or join another team.
Kim Nak-hyun and Sam Josef Belangel are holding out as main guards at the Korea Gas Corporation, which is preparing for the new season under coach Kang Hyuk.
FA negotiations will kick off with self-negotiation between the 10 teams and players, which will take place from July 7 to 21. Players who failed to sign contracts through self-negotiation will be submitted a letter of intent to recruit them.
Players who have submitted letters of intent for recruitment by multiple clubs can choose a club regardless of the amount offered.
However, if there is only one club that has submitted a letter of intent to recruit players, the player must sign a contract with the club concerned. If the club does not receive a letter of intent to recruit players, it will have to renegotiate with the original club.
In addition, if even one is offered to recruit by a domestic team, it will lose its qualification as a domestic player for five years by becoming a "player who refuses to join" if it ignores it and pushes ahead with its overseas expansion.
Lee Dae-sung was listed on the FA disclosure, but he may continue his overseas challenge.
In this case, Lee Dae-sung, now 33, will not be able to step on the KBL stage until he is at least 38 years old because he will not be recognized as a domestic player for five years according to the regulations.
The future of Kang Sang-jae and Kim Jong-kyu, who ranked No. 1 in the regular league in addition to Lee Dae-sung, is also of great interest in the FA market.
Kang Sang-jae, who played 33 minutes in 51 regular league games, announced that he has entered his prime with the highest average score (14.0 points) and rebound (6.3) since entering the professional league.
Veteran big man Kim Jong-kyu, who was born in 1991 and has already played 11 seasons so far this season, also averaged 11.9 points and 6.1 rebounds, and proved his competitiveness with a 3-point success rate of 37.5%.
Attractive options are Lee Jae-do and Park Ji-hoon, who served as charge leaders of Changwon LG and Anyang's Jeonggwanjang. Jeong Seong-woo (kt) and Han Ho-bin (Sono), who played key guards in their respective teams, were also on the market.
