The 2024-2025 women's professional basketball season begins this Sunday.

With the largest number of players moving to a new team of all time and even Japanese players joining the Asian quarter, it is foreshadowing a fiercer competition than any other season.

There are 16 players who have changed uniforms for transfer and trade.

On top of that, due to the implementation of the Asian quota system, Japanese players have built new nests for each team.

Woori Bank and KB, which split the league last season, have weakened their power significantly as the team's centers Park Ji-hyun and Park Ji-soo advance overseas, respectively.

This is why it is expected that the women's professional basketball competition will be fiercer than ever this season.

Rather, coaches and players are mentioning Samsung Life Insurance, which has the least fluctuation, as a strong candidate for the championship.

[Ha Sang-yoon / Samsung Life coach: If only the defense goes well and the rebound is cracked down, wouldn't it flow in a good way?].]

BNK, who led the off-season with the most active recruitment after overcoming last season's sadness, is also said to have jumped to the championship at once.

We have recruited veterans who can change the flow of the game, such as Park Hye-jin and Kim Sonia, and the key is whether to create synergy with young players.

[Park Jung-eun / BNK director: We will try our best to show you the sweaty parts of the season. I'll run to the end, as far as I can.]

Along with BNK, Woori Bank, the defending champion with the biggest player change, can also seek a second consecutive win depending on the teamwork of "Court Empress" Kim Dan-bi and the new players.

[Kim Dan-bi / Woori Bank forward: He didn't block me when I was on the same team, but he's upgraded more than I was on the previous team, so I want him to experience me when he's on another team.]

In addition, Hana Bank, which recruited Jinan, a national team center, and Shinhan Bank, which recruited Rika, a former Japanese national team, are also considered dark horses.The women's professional basketball, which attracts more attention because there is no

'absolute strong', will start its five-month long journey from the 27th.
