If fifth-place Asan Woori Bank (12-17) wins its final game, both teams would finish 13-17 and split their head-to-head series 3-3. In that scenario, Woori Bank would take fourth on point differential and BNK Sum would drop to fifth.<\/p>\n<p> BNK Sum will remain fourth only if Woori Bank loses its last game.<\/p>\n<p> Park Ji-su led KB Stars with a dominant 29 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists. Kang I-seul added 18 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists; Heo Ye-eun posted 14 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists; and Sakai Sara contributed 11 points.<\/p>\n<p> For BNK Sum, Kim Sonia recorded a 20-point, 11-rebound double-double. Park Hye-jin, Lee So-hee and Byun So-jung each scored 10 points, but it wasn\u2019t enough to change the outcome.<\/p>\n<p> KB seized control early. In the first quarter, Kang I-seul, Sakai Sara and Heo Ye-eun hit consecutive 3-pointers to set the tone. Park Ji-su then began to establish herself in the paint, scoring consistently, while Sakai and Na Yoon-jeong connected on long-range shots to stretch the lead. KB closed the first quarter up 26-14.<\/p>\n<p> BNK Sum fought back in the second. Lee So-hee and Kim Sonia chipped away at the deficit, and an outside shot from Park Hye-jin pulled BNK to 37-39. But Park Ji-su took over late in the half, and KB went into the break up 47-40.<\/p>\n<p> The third quarter proved decisive. Park Ji-su, Sakai Sara and Kang I-seul combined to explode offensively, pushing the lead past 20 points. BNK Sum\u2019s shots stopped falling, and KB extended the margin to finish the period leading 73-48.<\/p>\n<p> With the momentum firmly in their favor, KB Stars ran the fourth quarter under control and closed out a convincing 94-69 victory.<\/p>\n<p> [Sports Today reporter Lee Sang-pil <span><font color=\"blue\">sports@stoo.com<\/font><\/span>]<br \/>\u300cThe closest, most fun news \u24d2
