“My favorite basketball players are Curry and LeBron. I want to be like Curry in terms of shooting and LeBron in terms of passing, and it would be great if I could take the best of both worlds.”
From the 28th to the 29th, the 3rd URIMGIBE Championship Youth Basketball Tournament was held at the Jecheon Gymnasium and Aulim Sports Center in Jecheon, 토토사이트 Chungcheongbuk-do.
The tournament was held for the ultra-low and ultra-high categories. Asan Samsung won the championship in the ultra-low division. Asan Samsung met Wonju DB in the finals and won the title with a 32-25 victory. Asan Samsung’s Jeong Yehoon (Onyang Dongshincho 4) was named MVP.
“I’m very happy to have won the championship with my teammates and cooperation,” said Jeong.
“I was able to win because of the help of my friends. I really want to thank my friends and give credit to them.”
He started playing basketball in the first grade of elementary school when his parents urged him to lose weight. What has changed since he picked up a basketball?
“I’ve only lost about 3 kilograms (laughs). Thanks to Mr. Jang Do-hwan, who taught me the basics of dribbling well, I have made a lot of progress in my skills such as change dribbling and turning movements.”
Jeong looks up to Steph Curry (Golden State) and LeBron James (Lakers) as his role models.
“Curry and LeBron are my favorite basketball players. I want to be like Curry in terms of shooting and LeBron in terms of passing, and it would be great if I could emulate their strengths. Both Curry and LeBron are over 6-foot-6. I hope I can grow to 190 centimeters as well,” he explained.
Finally, Jeong said, “I’ve won a few national championships before, and I feel happy every time I do it. My goal is to win more championships in the future,” he said, adding that he hopes to win more titles.
