"Since Kim Hu-beom plays this year, he has to play twice (shooting guard) and three times (small forward) from the beginning of the season and focus on scoring ability."
Ko Chan-yu (190cm, G) played in 19 games in 2023 when he was a junior at Samil High School, averaging 26.5 points, 10.5 rebounds, and 5.1 assists and 1.3 steals, showing his versatility.
After entering Chung-Ang University, Ko played an average of 19 minutes and 22 seconds in 12 games at the 2024 KUSF University Basketball U-League, recording 9.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.8 assists. When I think about my high school years, even first graders did not meet my expectations.
Ko Chan-yu, whom I met during an off-season training in Tongyeong, Gyeongsangnam-do, said, "I'm more comfortable mentally than the first winter training. I had to adapt to Chung-Ang University's system in the first grade and it was very difficult because it took a long period of time. Now my classmates and seniors have become more comfortable, so I feel better."
When asked coolly that he did not match his name last year, Ko said, "I agree. Still, I played less time than others. Due to overlapping injuries, I couldn't show anything I can show. I am preparing to renew my commitment this season," adding, "I think I lack defense, lack weight, and need to improve my shooting skills, so I try to supplement my shooting and weight."
Ko Chan-yu, who had an average of 2.4 3-pointers in his third year of high school, only had a success rate of 29.1% (14/48) in the college basketball league. Although the high school record does not show a success rate, he has not been able to show his three-point shooting ability on the college stage. However, considering that he made 7 out of 8 3-pointers (87.5%) in the three games of the MBC Bae National University Basketball Competition, he is a player with the ability to get better.
Ko Chan-yu said, "In high school, even though there were many cases of shooting with defense, the success rate came out even though I threw a lot," adding, "In college, there were seven to eight throws properly while playing, and the success rate fell because they did not throw in a perfect opportunity with tough shots but threw in a state of defense."
When asked what part of his various organs he will perform this year, Ko Chan-yu said, "I played in various fields last year. I thought of scoring, but it didn't work," and added, "This year, (main point guard) Hu-beom will play, so I have to focus on scoring by playing as No. 2 and No. 3 from the beginning of the season." 메이저사이트
Chung-Ang University lost to Dongguk University in the quarterfinals play-off after ranking 9-5 and 5th in the university basketball league last year. Considering Chung's capabilities, Chung's performance is regrettable.
"First of all, we had a good start to the season, but after losing once, the atmosphere was in disarray, so we couldn't raise the atmosphere and our strengths didn't continue to come out," Ko Chan-yu said. "Even if the atmosphere is dampened after losing once (this year), we will have good results if we set the atmosphere again."
Chung-Ang University is still capable of threatening Korea University and Yonsei University. If Ko Chan-yu performs better than last year, Chung-Ang University can look higher.
Ko said, "It is important to not get injured. I will do my best to win the championship that my team wants," adding, "I want to hear that I have improved and improved more than my freshman year."
