LG was behind by 5 points and with 9 seconds left, Yoo Yu-sang also hit a 3-pointer to chase by 2 points and try to keep their last hope alive.
However, Park Moo-bin made one of the two free throws eight seconds before the end, and LG, in its final counterattack, had rookie Yoo Yu-sang throw a 3-point shot to tie the game, but the shot missed, resulting in a 3-point win for Hyundai Mobis.
