Orion, who had won three consecutive victories over Mobis in the semifinal PO, and Murphy Holloway worked hard with 20 points and 7 rebounds, but Lee Seung-hyun, the key player under the goal, was absent due to the novel coronavirus infection. One of the reasons that led to the rout was that Lee Dae-seong, the main scorer, threw five 3-pointers and failed to score even one. The second match between the two teams will be held at the same location on the 22nd at 7pm.
