Six women's professional basketball teams are catching their breath for a while with the All-Star Game break.

In the first half of the year, BNK, the lowest in the last season, took the lead, causing a strong sensation.

As the absolute power disappears, a more intense ranking war is expected in the second half of the year.

Last season's lowest BNK won its opening six games in a row, creating a strong sensation in women's basketball this season.

Although Woori Bank and Samsung Life Insurance were hit, they kept at the top of the ranking table by winning 12 games without losing one game in a row.

Veteran Park Hye-jin and Kim Sonia, who joined the team, coordinated the offense and defense and became the strongest teams with the most points and least points in the league.

{Defending Champion' Woori Bank sent off all the main players of the championship, including Park Ji-hyun, Park Hye-jin, and Choi Yi-sam, but kept the second place with Kim Dan-bi, who was ranked first in points, rebounds, and block shots.

However, there is concern about the deterioration of the rest of the players' performance, including the first "quarter scoreless" in WKBL history in the game without Kim Dan-bi.

[Kim Dan-bi / Woori Bank Forward: I don't fight the other team, but I feel like I'm fighting myself these days, so I think I need to get back to my stamina during the All-Star break.]

Samsung Life Insurance, which was considered the favorite to win, suffered the ups and downs of losing its opening four consecutive games, but has since rebounded with seven consecutive wins.

As the lead BNK is ahead of the opponent, it is foreshadowing a full-fledged battle for the lead in the second half of the year.

[Bae Hye-yoon / Samsung Life Center: We're not in first place like BNK, but we have to keep chasing, so we're just asking to work hard.]

Women's professional basketball will start the second half of the race on January 1 next year after the All-Star Game, in which Korean and Japanese players compete against each other on the 22nd.
