As of Tuesday, Warnie is ranking first in individual scoring (24.5 points) and rebounding (12.8 points) during the 2024-25 regular season of the professional basketball. He was named MVP of the first and second rounds, widening the gap between him and Nicholson (20.4 points) in scoring. This is the highest in both categories since the 2019-20 season when he first entered Korea. Carl Tamayo (Changwon LG) took the MVP of the third round, but Warnie also ranked second in scoring (23.6 points) and first in rebounding (13.6 points) in the third round.

With 29 points, 16 rebounds, and 10 assists, he achieved his third triple-double of this season in a home game against Jeong Kwan-jang in Anyang on Wednesday. Kim Sun-hyung has the most assists (4.5 per game) in his team, nearly identical to his 4.4. SK manager Jeon Hee-chul also beat Jeong Kwan-jang 84-69 to win his eighth consecutive game, before praising him as a player with the ability to pass.

Then, Wony suddenly revealed his intention to retire after living in Korea for seven years when the season is over. "This is my last season as a basketball player. I learned that basketball is not everything in life. I need to find my priorities," he wrote on his personal blog on April 16.

After the end of the articles of association, he made his entrance verbally. He said, "I'm working out happily, but I don't change my mind. I'll do my best to show you everything." Captain Kim Sun-hyung said, "I want to stop you, but I have to respect you. Since each of us has different values for happiness, no one should say anything about how Warnie finds dreams and happiness."

SK led the team with 23 wins and 6 losses, beating second-ranked Ulsan Hyundai Mobis (20 wins and 9 losses) by three games, and is more than six games apart from third-ranked teams. Jeon has been expressing satisfaction throughout the season, saying, "As the team has been working together for a long time, I have a knack of solving it on my own even if I don't give many instructions." At the center of it is Warnie, a foreign player, who has a strong sense of responsibility, and if he leaves, the team should be reorganized.
