After the first quarter of the All-Star Game between Team GongAji and Team Kvlmong ended, the four finalists took the court. Nicholson was the second to step out and showed a frightening level of focus. He made all five of his shots, especially in the “Moneyball Zone,” and quickly racked up points, eventually scoring 21 points. It was a good performance, one point better than his qualifying score. He deserved to win. Nicholson’s pace left the third runner, Oh Jae-hyun, with only 14 points. 토토사이트 Nicholson’s hopes of winning were high.

However, Lee Geun-hwi was just as dominant as he was in the preliminaries and showed another ‘last-minute upset’.

In fact, Justin Gutang (Changwon LG) had taken first place in the preliminary round with his superior skills. Bass tied for fifth in his heat and barely made it to the finals after a replay. But in the halftime showdown, Bass put on a dominant performance. After barely qualifying for the finals in fifth place, Bass nailed an explosive “between-the-legs” dunk in the second round. He jumped in front of the basket, spun 360 degrees, caught the ball between his legs, and slammed it down. It was an incredible display of power. He followed it up with a backhand dunk that earned him a perfect score (50) from the judges.

However, it was not enough to overcome the impact of the basket. In the end, Gutang only scored 49 points. The championship (and $2 million in prize money) went to Bass, while Gutang had to settle for the Performance Award ($1 million).
