Lee Won-seok, who led Seoul Samsung to a dramatic come-from-behind victory by scoring eight points in the fourth quarter alone, vowed to break through the competition with Lee Jung-hyun (Koyang Sono) and Ha Yoon-ki (Suwon kt), the top draft players in the league.

"We have a long way to go. We need to continue our performance today," Lee said after winning 80-79 at a home game against Changwon LG during the 2024-25 regular season at Jamsil Gymnasium in Seoul on Sunday. He led his team win along with Kofi Coburn (27 points and 14 rebounds) with 17 points and five rebounds.
Lee Won-seok, who is in his fourth year of debut, has the highest score this season with an average of 12 points per game. He also recorded his first double-double of the season with 11 points and 10 rebounds in the match against Sono in Goyang on the 2nd. Starting with 19 points against Ulsan Hyundai Mobis on the 31st of last month, he has scored double-digit points in three consecutive games until Sono in Goyang (11 points and 10 rebounds) on the 2nd of this month.

Lee was out for the season in March due to a ruptured ankle ligament. "Basically, my attitude toward basketball has changed, and my shooting posture has also changed. I couldn't train because I was hurt at the end of last season. So I just sat and practiced shooting, and I focused on fixing the basics." Lee has posted an average of 0.9 3-pointers, the most since his debut this season with a 33.3 percent success rate. He also hit an outfield shot at the start of the game. 스포츠토토

However, the competition with his colleagues still lingers. Lee Won-seok wore the Samsung uniform as the No. 1 player in the rookie draft for 2021. At that time, the No. 2 player was Ha Yoon-ki, the center of the Korean national team. The No. 3 player is Sono Lee Jung-hyun, who was reborn as the best player in the league. Lee won five titles including "Help with Measurement," "Interception," "Three-point Shoots and Skills Development Award" and "Best 5" last season, and is also the third scorer in the league (21.4 points) this season.

"Jung-hyun and Yoongi did a great job, which put me under a lot of pressure and had a hard time mentally. But the only way to overcome it is to prove my skills," Lee said. "I will not shy away and make head-on breakthrough." "I am glad that Lee Won-seok plays his role. We will not be able to focus on Lee forever. The game is meaningful for young players' determination and growth," Lee said.
