Jeong In-deok (196cm, F) earned 35 million won in total remuneration for the 2022-2023 season. He received the lowest salary among KBL players. However, he made a big hit in his first FA contract. He remained with LG for three years under the condition of a total remuneration of 90 million won for the 2023-2024 season.
Jeong In-duk, who remains with LG, said, “There are many players who don’t get chosen or quit because of the FA. However, I got another chance through the FA. I was thankful that I could continue as a basketball player.” He appreciated his contract with LG.
Jeong played 47 games during the 2023-2024 regular season. Since his debut, he has played the most regular league games. His average playing time was less than 10 minutes (9 minutes and 26 seconds), but Jeong’s 2023-2024 season was definitely meaningful.
In addition, Jeong In-deok’s time in the playoffs has also increased. If he played only 2 minutes and 36 seconds in the 2022-2023 semifinal play-off, he played 7 minutes and 5 seconds in the 2023-2024 semifinal play-off. His experience in big games has also accumulated quite a bit. The reporter told Jeong such records.
Jeong In-deok said, “As you said, the playing time was not long. There were many matches to be played. And I played in the semifinal playoff for the first time since my debut. I was able to experience big games. I liked those points,” he said, looking back on the 2023-2024 season.
Meanwhile, LG played in the semifinal playoff for two consecutive seasons from the 2022-2023 season. And it significantly reorganized its squad after the end of the 2023-2024 season. In particular, it traded Lee Jae-do (180 cm, G) and Lee Kwan-hee (191 cm, G), who were key veterans of the team. At the same time, it also acquired Doo Kyung-min (183 cm, G) and Jeon Sung-hyun (188 cm, F) from LG.
It is a bold choice for LG. However, they have no choice but to do so. This is because they did not play in the championship game in both the 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 seasons. However, such a choice is not so good for Jeong In-deok. This is because his chances may decrease.
However, Jeong said, “A lot of aggressive brothers joined. I think I can contribute more to defense than to offense. It’s not who joins the team, but how hard I work,” putting his passion more importantly.
Also, Jeong In-deok can think positively about this summer. This is because Jeong In-deok, a shooter, is with the best shooter in the league. First of all, he is with Heo Il-young (195cm, F), a captain and veteran shooter, and Jeon Sung-hyun, a senior directly under his belt at junior high school and the best shooter in KBL.
Jeong In-deok said, “(Heo) Il-young was difficult to defend from the standpoint of the opposing team. He is similar in height to me, and he is equipped with both shooting and skill. In addition, he has excellent ability to participate in rebounding. For that reason, I did not respond easily. However, as I am with Il-young, I want to learn his know-how,” he said, explaining what he wanted to learn from Heo.
Afterwards, he praised Jeon’s shots, saying, “(Former) Sung-hyun is a senior at middle school, high school, and university. I heard a lot about Sung-hyun since I was young, and I grew up watching him from a young age. I have nothing to say about shooting.”
Having said what he wanted to learn, Jeon said, “The defense has to work as hard as before. However, I want to do it confidently when it’s 2 to 2 or attack. We have to prepare well so that we can do that,” explaining what we have to do this offseason.
Lastly, I said, “You can show good performance only when you don’t get hurt. That’s why my first goal is to have an injury-free season. And my team was frustrated in the semifinal playoff for two years. As competent brothers have joined the team anew, I want to play in the championship game. Furthermore, I want to win the championship,” setting my goal. As I experienced the pain of the semifinal playoff firsthand, I desperately wanted the championship game.
