Kevin Quiambao dished out a career-high 18 assists in his KBL return from Gilas Pilipinas duties, the most by any player in the ongoing 2024-25 season, and the most in Korea in five years.
Back from his Gilas Pilipinas stint, Kevin Quiambao wasted no time making an impact for the Goyang Sono Skygunners, orchestrating a 95-85 upset over defending KBL champions Busan KCC Egis Wednesday.
Quiambao didn’t just stuff the stat sheet—he controlled the game, finishing with 12 points, eight rebounds, three steals, and a career-high 18 assists in a masterful playmaking display.
Quiambao’s 18 assists are the most in the KBL this season and the most since Heo Hoon’s 21 assists in the 2019-20 season. KQ’s 18 dimes are also the 7th most in KBL history.
His performance helped Goyang secure just their 13th win of the season (13-26), a rare bright spot in an otherwise challenging campaign.
Despite playing only eight games so far due to a mid-season arrival and an ankle injury, Quiambao has quickly proven his worth, now averaging 17.4 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 5.4 assists per contest.
KQ’s assist average would be top-5 in the KBL if he was eligible, and his scoring average would be 8th.
