Miguel Andre "Migs" Oczon (born March 29, 2000) is a Filipino professional basketball player for the Ulsan Hyundai Mobis Phoebus of the Korean Basketball League (KBL).

Professional career

Ulsan Hyundai Mobis Phoebus (2024 up to present)

In December 2023, Oczon decided to forego his remaining two years of eligibility to play for the CSB Blazers in the NCAA as he signed a contract to play for the Ulsan Hyundai Mobis Phoebus in the KBL as a Filipino import. The St. Benilde guard averaged 13.17 points, 4.72 rebounds, and 2.78 assists per game in his last season in the collegiate ranks.

On January 6, 2024, topscorer Oczon hit a game-winning three with 10.5 seconds left to welcome himself with an Ulsan win over the Suwon KT Sonicboom, 83–82. He did the same for Ulsan with two straight triples in the last 15 seconds to defeat the tough-fighting KT, 91-89, on October 28, 2024.

Oczon would later up the ante and score a career-high 31 points but his team lost to the Seoul SK Knights, 76–70, on January 10, 2025.

Personal life

Oczon, who wanted to give all-out support for his family in Davao City but had to suffer major injuries in college, said that he continues to learn the ethics of the game and respect outcomes.
