Changwon LG arrives, to face PBA teams, Ateneo, UP in tune-ups

Korean Basketball League team Changwon LG arrived in the country on Monday, choosing to set up camp here for its final preparation for the upcoming season.

Besides this being a homecoming for Justin Gutang, there are two more familiar faces who are part of the Sakers contingent.

The head coach of Changwon LG is Cho Sang-hyun. Cho was the one calling the shots for Korea during the 2021 FIBA Asia Cup Qualifiers.
