Seoul, New Taipei, Chiba, and Anyang. The Final Four cast in EASL Season 2 is now complete.
The Seoul SK Knights secured the fourth and final playoff spot in Season 2 of the East Asia Super League after dominating the New Taipei Kings, 89-57, at the Jamsil Student's Gymnasium Wednesday.
After a close fight between the two squads in the first three quarters, the SK Knights blew out the Kings in the final frame, limiting the Taipei-based squad to just five points.
Jameel Warney came up huge for the SK Knights, finishing with a game-high 34 points, 18 rebounds, and six assists.
The Kings, who were without star Jeremy Lin due to a foot injury, relied on his younger brother Joseph and big man Tony Mitchell.
Mitchell, a former PBA import with Star and NLEX, led New Taipei with 12 points and nine rebounds, while Joseph Lin added 10 points, five rebounds, and seven assists.
Despite the loss, the Kings have already secured their spot in the EASL Playoffs.
Seoul will join New Taipei, Anyang Jung Kwan Jung, and the Chiba Jets in the Final Four happening on March 8-10, 2024.
