Regular Season Round 12: Antwerp - Aalst 96-62

Date: December 26, 2022
The most interesting game of round 12 was a derby match between two teams from Belgium. Seventh ranked Antwerp Giants outleveled visiting Okapi Aalst (5-7) 96-62. Antwerp Giants shot the lights out from three sinking 12 long-distance shots on high 52.2 percentage. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 22 assists comparing to just 9 passes made by Okapi Aalst's players. Worth to mention a great performance of forward Thijs De Ridder (203-2003) who helped to win the game recording 14 points and 8 rebounds and American swingman Spencer Butterfield (191-1992, college: Utah St.) who added 9 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists during the contest. Antwerp Giants' coach felt very confident that he used entire bench which allowed the starters a little rest for the next games. The best for the losing side was Serbian Nikola Popovic (211-1997, college: Boston Coll.) with 17 points and 9 rebounds (on 7-of-9 shooting from the field) and American point guard Jordan Walker (186-1997, college: Morehead St.) scored 12 points and 6 rebounds. Antwerp Giants (5-4) moved-up to fifth place. Okapi Aalst lost fourth consecutive game. They dropped to the seventh position with seven games lost. Antwerp Giants are looking forward to face Belfius Mons-Hainaut (#6) in Jemappes in the next round. Okapi Aalst will play on the road against Leuven Bears and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
