KBL: ‘Samgyup Gang’ dominates Korea in modified 3×3 game


The Samgyup Gang made sure to dominate during their segment on the 2023 KBL All-Star Day.

The troika of Anyang KGC’s Rhenz Abando, Ulsan Hyundai’s RJ Abarrientos, and Daegu KOGAS’ SJ Belangel dominated Team Korea’s KGC’s Byeon Junhyeong, Seoul Samsung’s Lee Junghyun, and Seoul SK’s Kim Sunhyung, 13-7, Sunday at KT Sonicboom Arena in Suwon, Korea.

The game itself was only five minutes long, unlike the 10 minutes of a regular 3×3 game.

Still, the Filipinos put up buckets in a hurry.

Abando and Abarrientos heated up early, giving the Philippines a 7-4 lead.

Belangel and Abarrientos then made it rain, before Abando capped things off with a jam.

In the all-star game, Abarrientos and Team Heo Ung fell to Team Lee Daesung, 117-122.

Abarrientos only played 14 minutes in the game for three points.

Ha Yoongi led Team Dash with 28 points on 14-of-18 shooting from the field. Lee Gwanhee got 19 points, while Dash added 16.

Jeon Seonghyun paced Team Heo with 29 points on nine treys. Omari Spellman added 20 markers, while Ricardo Ratliffe chipped in 13 points and eight rebounds.
