New Zealand’s Park Ji-hyun, who joined Tokomana and Queens, had a strong performance against Seodaemun-gu Office.

Park had 15 points, nine rebounds, two assists, and five steals against Seodaemun-gu in the Asia Pacific Women’s Basketball Challenge (AWBC) at the NBA Academy School in Haikou, Hainan Province, China on Monday. Tokomanawa defeated Seodaemun-gu Office 76-48.

Park, who played as the starting guard, assisted center Margaret Brown’s layup with an exquisite in-bounds pass for the team’s first points. With 1:20 left in the first quarter, she scored on a layup following a crossover dribble, 사설 토토사이트 drawing cheers from her teammates.

Tokomanawa convened last week in preparation for the new Tauihi Basketball Aotearoa season, which kicks off in October. Playing in the AWBC is actually the first step in getting the team together.

While the team had the advantage in rebounding and scoring due to their superior physicality and skill, they were unable to coordinate their movements with each other.

Park Ji-hyeon, who met her new teammates for the first time in Haikou on the 26th, also worked on teamwork by passing the ball rather than scoring.

In the fourth quarter, the team’s scoring from link-up plays increased as they became more comfortable with each other’s moves. Park scored on a give-and-go with Brown with 2:20 left in regulation and then assisted on a pick-and-roll with Brown on the next possession.

Park also scored the team’s final basket with 12 seconds left in regulation.

Park’s 15 points were second only to Brown’s 24 points and 18 rebounds.

After the game, Park said, “I joined the team here, so I tried to adapt to the team play and play my game within it. I’ll do a good job in the future.”

With the success of her first official game with Tokomanawa, Park will next play against Beijing Greatwater on Nov. 29.
