Regular Season Round 26: Aalstar - Leuven 89-86

Date: March 25, 2017
Ninth-ranked Leuven Bears (7-19) gave a tough game to fifth ranked Okapi Aalstar (14-13) on Saturday. Okapi Aalstar managed to secure only three-point victory 89-86. However their fans expected much easier game. Okapi Aalstar made 19-of-24 free shots (79.2 percent) during the game. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 22 assists. Samoan-American power forward John Tofi (203-84, college: UTEP, agency: Pensack Sports) had a double-double by scoring 18 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists (on 7-of-8 shooting from the field) to lead the charge for the winners and American Bill Amis (206-87, college: Hawaii, agency: Pensack Sports) chipped in 12 points and 9 rebounds during the contest. Okapi Aalstar's coach Steve Ibens used a ten-player rotation in such tough game. American guard Codi Miller-McIntyre (190-94, college: Wake Forest) responded with 18 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists and 7 steals and his fellow American import guard Korey Billbury (193-93, college: VCU) scored 19 points and 7 rebounds. Five Okapi Aalstar and four Leuven Bears players scored in double figures. Okapi Aalstar maintains fifth position with 14-13 record. Loser Leuven Bears keep the ninth place with 19 games lost. Okapi Aalstar will face league's second-placed Antwerp Giants on the road in the next round and it may be quite challenging game. Leuven Bears will play against Liege Basket (#10) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
