Gwangshin Middle and High School Basketball Club, today meeting Kim Nak-hyun is ‘the best day’
Sangmu Basketball Team Kim Nak-hyun’s sincere advice is spreading good influence to student players.
Since the 15th, 10 members of the Armed Forces Athletic Corps (Sangmu) men’s basketball team, including Kim Nak-hyun, have been presenting positive energy to middle and high school basketball players through a talent donation coaching program.
Kim Nak-hyun, who joined Incheon Etland (now Daegu Gas Corporation) in 2017, was reborn as the team’s main player as soon as he debuted, and even in the 2021-2022 season before enlistment, he recorded an average of 13.2 points (2.1 three-point shots) and 5.7 assists, contributing to Korea Gas Corporation’s He is considered one of the highest-level guards in KBL, contributing greatly to advancing to the playoffs.
Kim Nak-hyun said, “Looking at the young players, I think of the middle and high school days, all of the members of the Sangmu basketball team will be the same. Looking at the eyes, the will to learn is considerable, and I heard that we are the goal for the young players. ‘If you don’t come prepared, you will get hurt. I will do my best to be sincere with the thought of ‘I can give you something’,” he said about his feelings on the program.먹튀검증
He continued, “It was after seeing Shin Myeong-ho (Jeonju KCC coach), a senior in Yeosu, that the moment that made my goal of becoming a professional basketball player clearer. He recalled the memories, saying, “At that time, my brother looked really cool in my eyes. Could it be because of his influence? Every time I went to my alma mater, it gave me the strength to get a little closer to my juniors.”
To the student players, “As the player experience increases, I feel the importance of basic skills that coaches always emphasize. I hope you will think about it seriously.” He concluded the interview with the advice.
Eom Joon-hyeong (2nd grade, 177cm), who received a basketball with the autographs of all 10 members of the Sangmu basketball team as a gift, said, “I usually practiced Nak-Hyun Kim’s play, but seeing Nak-Hyun Kim appear in front of me was more of a surprise than a good feeling. When attacking, the direction of the body should be toward the rim to create a situation where it is easy to break through and distribute passes due to the influence of the center of gravity movement, but he pointed out the point precisely, saying that he seems to have a habit of heading outward too much. He also pointed out that I need to catch the ball close to the 3-point line, but I started too far from the line. I don’t think I will ever forget today, learning from the best player in KBL. I will continue to focus on and practice the points you pointed out. I will work really hard to make it happen,” he said.
The 2023 Talent Donation Coaching Program is scheduled to end with a visit to Yeocheon Middle School and Yeosu Hwayang High School (May 22-26), Kim’s alma mater.
