Rhenz Abando becomes the first Filipino import in the KBL to reach the 30-point mark, but Anyang falls to Seoul in a heartbreaking one-point loss.
MANILA, Philippines – Rhenz Abando’s finest game yet in an Anyang KGC uniform went to waste as they absorbed a heartbreaking 82-81 loss to the Seoul SK Knights in the Korean Basketball League on Sunday, December 18.
Down by 3 points, 79-82, following a Choi Jun-yong fadeaway jumper with 12.3 seconds on the clock, Abando took it upon himself in the next possession and got fouled on his tough three-point attempt with just 4.4 seconds remaining. He calmly swished the first two charities, before his third and final free throw hit the back iron.
Like Abando, former St. Benilde standout Justin Gutang came up with a solid performance in the Changwon LG Sakers’ 79-73 triumph over the Goyang Carrot Jumpers.
