Wonju DB Promy Team Overview
Last season, Dongbu finished third in the standings but crashed out in the first round of the playoffs. Despite that early exit, experts now see Dongbu as the frontrunners for the title heading into the new campaign. In recent KBL Cup victories over Seoul Knights and Samsung Thunders, Dongbu racked up 103 and 101 points respectively, with the trio of Ellinson, Hammonds, and Albano combining for 69 points in one of those clashes.
Dongbu’s main strength lies in their foreign duo. Ellinson, last season’s top-scoring import with 21.8 points per game, has re-signed with the club. Over the summer, he was joined by Hammonds, who averaged 20.8 points per contest. The team also boasts captain and point guard Albano - the 2023/24 MVP under the Asian players quota. Among the Korean contingent, San-Jae and Jeong-Hyeon are key contributors.

Goyang Orions reached last season’s finals, where they fell short against Egis, despite a strong playoff winning streak. During the recent media day, the franchise was named among the league’s top three contenders alongside Dongbu and Egis.

The club managed to retain their entire core over the summer. Their marquee player is Jon-Hyen, last season’s Korean MVP, who averaged 18.6 points and 5.2 assists per game.
