Lee Seung-jun (basketball)

Lee Seung-Jun (born Eric Lee Sandrin; 18 May 1978) is an American-born South Korean professional basketball player. He last played for Alab Pilipinas of the ASEAN Basketball League.

Career
Lee's basketball career took him around the world, including two years in Luxembourg and one in Brazil. He later returned to the United States, and was playing for the Bellingham Slam in 2005 when he caught the attention of scouts for the Harlem Globetrotters, and signed for a season with them. On the team, he acquired the nickname "Shanghai". That year, he also played for the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA Summer League and the Sacramento Kings in the NBA preseason. He went on to play for the Singapore Slingers, where he was noted for a September 2008 incident in which his trash-talking provoked members of the opposing Air21 Express team to violence; Ranidel de Ocampo deliberately walked under him during a dunk to cause him to lose his balance and fall over, while Homer Se later kicked him in the head and was ejected from the game. He played for South Korea at the 2010 Asian Games and the 2013 FIBA Asia Championship.

In mid-November 2016, Alab Pilipinas of the ASEAN Basketball League announced that they have signed Lee.
