Vo Kim Ban of Saigon Heat

This year marks the outstanding growth of Vo Kim Ban. The 22-year-old is an indispensable member of Saigon Heat, having competed in six consecutive VBA seasons.

One of Ban’s highlights during this year’s tournament was his series of three successful three-points that helped Saigon Heat win against Cantho Catfish.

Ban scored a total of 23 points in the semifinal and final games of the VBA 2022, including many impressive three-pointers.

Despite playing at the VBA for the first time, Khoa proved he was an important member of Cantho Catfish.

The 20-year-old became the youngest player to score over 20 points at VBA following the game against Hanoi Buffaloes.

After 10 games, Khoa bagged a total of 75 points.

Khanh was absent in the first half of the season, but his appearance in the second half brought a big advantage to coach Todd Purves’ squad.

Despite being smaller in size, Khanh displayed a strong competitive spirit and impressive skills.
