Goyang and Suwon KT each have more than one route to a scoring possession. LG and Wonju DB likewise have productive first options, but their second attacks and defensive rebounds have separated recent results. The middle quarters should expose which teams can keep supplying shots after the first action is stopped.
Lee Jeong-hyeon and Scottie James can create for Goyang, while Bass, Oczon and Porter give KT perimeter and inside responses. O'Bryant left Goyang's last game early and his status is unresolved; Lee and James still played heavy minutes, and KT's principal scorers all played in its latest comeback. KT's recent defensive concessions and Goyang's late defensive leaks leave room for scoring after both teams' opening runs. That's why I'm siding with more points in Goyang–KT.
LG can work through Marei's passing, Goodwin's drives and Yu Ki-sang's shooting against DB's Albano–Hammonds creation. DB's Kang and Ellenson missed its last game, with Williams supplying boards in Ellenson's place; LG's Yang remains out, while Goodwin and Yu have already played substantial replacement roles. DB's extra rebounds did not become enough scoring against KCC, and LG has more demonstrated ways to answer a close-game run and finish a defensive possession. That's why I'm siding with LG.
