Date: October 22, 2011
The most crucial game of the last round was the first loss of undefeated Spirou Charleroi (3-1) at the home court on Saturday night. Hosts were defeated by Okapi Aalstar (4-1) 76-68. It ended at the same time the three-game winning streak of Spirou Charleroi. It was a key game for the top position in the league as both teams had the same 3-1 record before this meeting. The guests trailed by 8 points after three quarters before their 23-7 charge, which allowed them to win the game. Okapi Aalstar dominated on the defensive end, holding Spirou Charleroi to just 7 points in fourth quarter. They made 16-of-21 free shots (76.2 percent) during the game. The best player for the winners was American-Lithuanian power forward Christopher Young (206-79, college: Michigan, agency: Court Side) who scored 14 points and 9 rebounds. American forward Christopher Copeland (203-84, college: Colorado) chipped in 12 points and 5 rebounds. Five Okapi Aalstar players scored in double figures. American guard Demond Mallet (185-78, college: McNeese St., agency: Higher Vision Sports) produced 21 points and 4 assists and international forward Christophe Beghin (207-80, agency: Court Side) added 13 points and 5 rebounds respectively for the hosts. Okapi Aalstar have a solid series of three victories in a row. They keep a position of league leader. Defending champion Spirou Charleroi dropped to the second place with one game lost. They share the position with Leuven. Okapi Aalstar will have a break next round, and it should allow them to practice more before next game. Spirou Charleroi will play on the road against VOO Verviers-Pepinster and is hoping to win this game.
