Shinhan Bank vs. KEB Hana 64-68

KEB Hana was the only team yet to record a win and they looked to be heading down the same road after finding themselves trailing by 18 at the half. However, a different team came out in the third quarter and KEB fought their way back into the game. Led by Jazmon Gwathmy who had a great third quarter, scoring 12 points, she helped her team win the quarter 28 to 9 and take the lead heading into the fourth! A sloppy fourth quarter by both teams in which they traded turnovers Isabelle Harrison took over and helped her team get their first win of the season.

KB Stars vs. Samsung 79-63

In a game that saw two undefeated teams meet for the first time this season KB was determined to avenge last year’s playoff departure at the hands Samsung. The highly anticipated match started out as many expect as both teams battled and ended up tied after the first quarter. The second quarter was all KB as they held Samsung to a lowly seven points for the quarter, taking a ten point lead into the half. The second half was all KB as they slowly pulled away from Samsung, leading by as many as twenty points at one point in the game. KB’s post play once again led the way as both Dantas and Park Jisu finished with double doubles. Samsung made a run but KB had too many weapons. The Stars are now the only undefeated team in the league at 4-0 with one game left in the first round.
