It will only allow the registration of 2 players who are not South Koreans and none of them will be able to exceed 2 meters in height.
Korean Basketball League :
Rod Benson (2.06 meters), David Simon (2.02) and Charles Rodes (2.01) were the first players harmed by this regulation which did not discriminate the importance of each of them in the Korean league. In fact, Simon was the top scorer of the championship (26.1 points)
But there did not end the legal modifications of the KBL since the second foreign player cannot exceed 1.86 meters. In turn, not only the height will be prohibitive in the next season, but also the background in the race of each of the international players.
