The hosts were ahead by 10 points but lost the second period ending it with a 7-point deficit before their 21-8 run, which allowed them to win the game. Liege Basket shot the lights out from three nailing 14 long-distance shots on high 51.9 percentage. It was an exceptional evening for American center Kenneth Simms (205-86, college: Cumberland, agency: Two Points) who led the winners and scored 13 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists. International power forward Ioannis Iarochevitch (207-89, agency: LBM Management) accounted for 13 points and 11 rebounds for the winning side. American Lee Cummard (201-85, college: BYU, agency: Priority Sports) came up with a double-double by scoring 17 points and 10 rebounds (on 10-of-11 shooting from the field) and the other American import forward Da'Sean Butler (201-88, college: W.Virginia, agency: KMG Sports Management) added 21 points and 5 rebounds respectively for Okapi Aalstar in the defeat. Four Okapi Aalstar players scored in double figures. Liege Basket have a solid series of three victories in a row.
