BNK coach Park Jung-eun's eyes were on Lee So-hee. What was the reason.

Busan BNK Thumb defeated Incheon Shinhan Bank 77-57 in its first showdown of the season between Hana Bank 2024 and 2025 Women's Professional Basketball League held at the Incheon Dowon Gymnasium. BNK firmly maintained its No. 1 position by winning its first four consecutive games.

BNK is off to a good start, looking at the highest place after overcoming the regret of the bottom of last season. It also boasts a perfect balance of offense and defense, ranking first in the average scoring league (70.5 points) and minimum number of runs (57.8 points). In the offseason, the results of successful reinforcement in various positions, including Park Hye-jin, Kim Sonia, and Saki Iijima, are coming out.

While announcing a good start, Park mentioned Lee So-hee as one of the things that need to be supplemented. "She is not excited yet," Park said. "She seeks confidence through training, but she had severe plantar fasciitis after visiting the national team. As a result, she failed to properly train."

Coach Park Jung-eun said even before the game, "I want to keep it cool, but I feel restless. If I focus calmly on the play, I think it will explode sooner or later. I think I am going through a process of growing further."

Lee So-hee, who debuted as the second overall pick in the WKBL rookie draft during the 2018-2019 season, has been reborn as a leading guard in the league, drawing a steep growth curve every season. In particular, she is a resource with explosive scoring ability.
In a match against Asan Woori Bank on Wednesday last week, the team displayed explosive power. In the first quarter, the team scored 13 points in total. Manager Park Jung-eun wanted to display this scoring capacity. In the match, Park had 11 points, six rebounds, and four assists, overcoming the silence in the first half and scoring valuable points that shook off Shinhan Bank's pursuit in the third and fourth quarters.

Coach Park Jung-eun said, "I thought that he has matured a lot as he plays his role at an important moment. I hope he will be in better condition." 스포츠토토

In the four games of this season, Lee averaged 35 minutes and 59 seconds with 11.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 3.3 assists. Although her record naturally fell slightly from the previous season (14.0 points), she still maintains the apparent figures. Above all, she is still in the early stages of the season.

Nevertheless, is the reason why director Park Jung-eun's eyes are on him? Maybe Lee So-hee has endless potential to grow that much more.
