The Korea Basketball Association conducted an interview with the national men’s basketball team leaders on Wednesday, which was held at the 5th Performance Improvement Committee in 2023. It was a method in which a coach and a coach formed a team to apply. Ahn Joon-ho and Seo Dong-cheol, Kang Eul-joon and Hwang Seong-seong, and Lee Sang-yoon and Lee Hyun-joon were among the candidates.

It has decided to recommend coach Ahn Joon-ho and Seo Dong-cheol, who scored the highest, to the board of directors. During the selection process, the association conducted interviews and evaluations for more than five hours, the longest ever.

Ahn was a leading figure in his prime as the head coach of Samsung in professional basketball. He served as the coach for seven seasons from the 2010-2011 season, and participated in playoffs every season. He also made it to the championship game three times. In the 2005-2006 season, he enjoyed the joy of winning the championship. During this period, he was the leader who joined Ahn. He assisted Ahn as the head coach at the time, and left the team together in 2011. The leadership duo, which led the revival of Samsung, will be united in the national team.

However, there is an assessment that Ahn’s sense of field is lacking. He has no leadership experience for 12 years. In the meantime, he went to the U.S. for basketball training, but there are concerns because it has been a long time since he took the helm. Fortunately, Seo served as the head coach of KT in professional basketball for five seasons from the 2022-2023 season, which seems to be able to supplement this. 스포츠토토
