From Teammates to Rivals: "We Will Take You Down"

The players who teamed up to win the first-ever gold medal in men's 3x3 basketball at the Asian Games have reunited ahead of the KBL rookie draft.

They threw down friendly gauntlets against each other, knowing they will soon be foes on the professional stage.

A month after capturing the Asian Games gold medal together, Lee Dong-keun, Lee Ju-young, Kim Seung-woo, and Goo Min-gyo gathered once again for physical attribute testing ahead of the rookie draft.

They cheered each other on as they took turns being measured for sprints, muscular strength, and agility.

Though they are like brothers, all are projected to be high draft picks, making it likely they will become rivals in the pros.

[Kim Seung-woo: I will gradually break their mental resolve.]

[Lee Ju-young: I will take them down.]

[Lee Dong-keun: I won't back down.]

[Goo Min-gyo: First place will be mine.]

Despite the fierce war of words, they have reportedly promised that whoever gets drafted first will buy the others a gift.
