Saki Ijima (former BNK) is back. New faces are also appearing here.

The list of participants in the 2025-2026 WKBL Asian Quarter Player Draft was made public on Wednesday. There were a total of 18 applicants.카지노사이트

The most eye-catching player is by far an experienced player. He played an average of 33 minutes and 47 seconds in 30 regular league games in Busan BNK Sum uniform last season, scoring 9.6 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 1.5 assists and 1.6 steals, and is one of the main players who led BNK to its first championship.

In addition, there are many rumors that Saki has an outstanding personality as a veteran outside of the game, so naturally, the top order is likely. Other experienced players include Mitsuki Hirano (former Samsung Life Insurance), Natsuki Sunagawa (former Woori Bank), Moe Shida (former KB Stars) and Yuzuki Ishida (former Hana Bank).

Then, who is the newly applied face. 

First of all, Miyuki Kawamura, a center born in 1994, is drawing attention. He stands 185 centimeters tall. From the perspective of a team that does not have a big man, his physical condition is attractive enough. He also played in the FIBA Asia Cup 2017. In other words, he has experience playing for the Japanese national team.

In the Japanese W-League, he played for Chanson and Toyota Antelopes. Last season, he played for Toyota Textile. He averaged 4.3 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 0.8 assists in 28 games. He started three games.

However, he suffered a major injury in 2018 that ruptured the posterior cruciate ligament and blew the entire season.

"I also have mid-range shots and 3-pointers. I regret my judgment in a moment, but I am good at hanging the screen and positioning myself well under the basket," said an official familiar with the news on Japanese basketball. "He also has a good finishing touch. I know he has a very good personality."

Another B official said, "He is a veteran center who debuted in 2013. He has been injured, but he played in many games in all other seasons except for the season when he was injured. He has also maintained his career."

"As far as I know, I tried to compete in the WKBL last season but was delayed. He is known to really like Korea. There must be many Korean players who are close to him," he added.

Along with Kawamura, Sakai Sarah was also mentioned. Born in 1995, he was a 165-centimeter-tall guard and averaged 4.3 points, 2.2 rebounds, and 2.3 assists in 27 appearances last season for the Aishin Wings.

"Speed and mid-range shots are outstanding guards," a B source said. "High-quality guards joined the ISIN team last season, but they were eliminated from the competition. Up until the recent season, the team had a foothold in the team. He is a player who can be evaluated as a starting member."

The draw ceremony for the Asian quarter player draft pick will be held at 10 a.m. on the 28th through ZOOM, a non-face-to-face video medium, at the WKBL headquarters located in Gangseo-gu, Seoul, and the draft will be held in Tokyo, Japan, on June 6.
