Changwon LG, a professional basketball team, won two consecutive championships (four wins out of seven) against Seoul SK, the top team in the regular league, crossing the fifth ridge to win its first championship.
LG beat SK 76-71 in the away game of the second round of the 2024-2025 KCC Professional Basketball Championship held at Jamsil Student Gymnasium in Seoul on the 7th.

SK, which continued the chase, followed Deliano's three-point shot 66-67 with 1:53 left, but LG took a breather after accumulating four points in a row with Jeong In-deok's under-the-goal shot and Tamayo's free throw.
Twenty-eight seconds before the end of the 71-68 unstable lead, the organic outer gun cut through the rim and sealed it.
