Professional basketball team Samsung is riding an unstoppable wave of momentum.
Today (October 24), Samsung defeated Mobis to achieve a 7-game winning streak from the season opener for the first time in the club's history.
Samsung seized control from the early stages by repeatedly attacking Mobis' weakened paint area, which was missing foreign center Prim due to a knee injury.
Late in the second quarter, Kuttig boosted the team's momentum even further by sinking a long-range buzzer-beater.
Although Mobis mounted a chase led by Beasley and Lee Woo-seok, Samsung cut off their momentum with Han Ho-bin's precise 3-pointer and Kuttig's quick drives, before sealing the victory with a two-hand dunk by McCullogh.
Crushing Mobis by 20 points with a score of 91 to 71, Samsung captured its first-ever 7-game opening win streak in club history and the 6th in league history.
Meanwhile, Sono edged past KCC with a dramatic buzzer-beating 3-pointer by Lee Jung-hyun right before the game ended to secure its third straight win, while SK—which had trailed by as many as 20 points in the second quarter—overcame LG with Kim Nak-hyun's go-ahead 3-pointer late in the fourth quarter to claim its second consecutive victory.
