Players
Lee Seoung-hyun is the first Korea University player since Lee Kyu-sup to be picked first overall. Lee Kyu-sup, now a coach at Seoul Samsung Thunders, had been the first overall pick of the 2000 draft.[2]
The draft received considerable attention as Yonsei University shooting guard Heo Ung, son of then-Jeonju KCC Egis head coach Hur Jae, was among the draft participants. He was one of the few juniors as "early entry" was still considered uncommon at that time.[5] Hur Jae was expected to pick his son but chose Korea University senior Kim Ji-hoo instead and Heo Ung was picked by Hur's former team Wonju Dongbu Promy.[6][4]
