Professional basketball team Seoul SK is attempting to advance to the semifinals of the East Asian Super League (EASL).
SK will play a home game in Group B of the 2023-2024 EASL Group Stage against Taiwan’s New Taipei Kings at Jamsil Student Gymnasium in Songpa-gu, Seoul on the 31st.

The top two teams from Group A and B advance to the EASL semifinals.
SK, with 2 wins and 2 losses, is in 3rd place in Group B.
The first place in Group B is New Taipei, which has already qualified for the semifinals with 4 wins and 1 loss,
and the second place is Japan’s Ryukyu Golden Kings,
which finished the group stage with 3 wins and 3 losses.
If SK wins this game, Seoul SK will secure at least 3 wins in the group stage.
Ryukyu Golden Kings
In the group stage, the opponent’s record between the teams is first looked at,
and then the goal difference between the teams is considered.
SK lost 79-80 in the first game against Ryukyu, and won 82-69 in the second game,
taking the lead in goal difference.
Therefore, even if SK loses the final game against the Philippine Meralco Bolts and ends up with 3 wins and 3 losses,
they will push Ryukyu in goal difference and secure a ticket to the semifinals by finishing in second place.
However, if SK loses this game, they must win against the Meralco Bolts (1 win, 4 losses),
who are at the bottom of Group B in the final match.
Meanwhile, New Taipei’s NBA player Jeremy Lin is not expected to appear in this game.
Lin, who was injured in last week’s game against Ryukyu,
recently announced on his social media, “As a result of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan,
I was diagnosed with a plantar fascia injury.
I will not be able to play in the game for the time being.”
