DR Congolese-Belgian Wen Boss Mukubu (198-1983, college: UAB) contributed with 13 points and 9 rebounds for the winners. Swedish forward Zaba Bangala (201-2001) replied with 19 points and 9 rebounds and American-Nigerian guard Tobi Ewuosho (196-1997, college: Alabama St.) added 12 points and 8 rebounds in the effort for Mechelen. Four Mechelen players scored in double figures. Leuven maintains fourteenth position with 3-6 record. Mechelen at the other side dropped to the fourth place with one game lost.
