Lee Jung-hyun, the best mystery in the FA this season, goes to DB. Why is their contract a win-win

Blog Article

The biggest mystery in the free agent market this year was Samsung's Lee Jung-hyun. Lee Jung-hyun, the ace player of Seoul Samsung, is 35 years old or older and has no compensation rules.

It was attractive enough, but Lee Jung-hyun's story was not heard in the FA market.

The final choice was the Wonju DB.

DB signed a free contract (FA) with veteran guard Lee Jung-hyun on the 2nd for a two-year contract period and a total of 400 million won in remuneration.

The interests of the two sides were matched.

DB tried to reinforce Kim Sun-hyung. However, the terms of the contract did not match. Kim Sun-hyung offered a three-year contract worth more than 700 million won, and DB set an internal policy that it cannot give more than 650 million won. 먹튀검증

In the end, Kim Sun-hyung moved the team to a three-year, 800 million won contract with KT, which needed to reinforce the guard due to Huh Hoon's departure.

For DB, who was eliminated from the round of 6 last season, he needed guard resources to be able to take the center of the team and help Ethan Albano.

Lee established early on that he would not sign with the original fastball team Seoul Samsung. However, it was not easy to find a team that wanted Lee.

Salary adjustments were needed.

Eventually, Lee Jung-hyun headed to DB with an annual salary of 400 million won.

Lee Jung-hyun is still competitive. Lee Jung-hyun, a graduate of Kwangju High School and Yonsei University, played in 54 games last season, averaging 10.4 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 5.5 assists.

Although he has seen his speed drop compared to his heyday, he is still a veteran guard with strong clutch ability and competitiveness. Notably, his durability is unmistakable. He has never missed a single game during 690 games since his debut in the KBL.
