Okapi Aalstar players were unselfish on offense dishing 30 assists comparing to just 16 passes made by Basic-Fit Brussels' players.

American forward Da'Sean Butler (201-88, college: W.Virginia, agency: KMG Sports Management) contributed with 24 points for the winners.

Four Okapi Aalstar and five Basic-Fit Brussels players scored in double figures.
