BNXT League

Regular Season Round 9: Mechelen - Limburg 85-81

Date: November 22, 2025
Very predictable result when fourth ranked Kangoeroes (7-1) won against 10th ranked Limburg United (4-5) in Mechelen 85-81 on Saturday. However just four-point win is not that big difference and the fans of host team counted on more convincing victory. Mechelen made 18-of-22 free shots (81.8 percent) during the game. American point guard Joshua Heath (186-1994, college: Georgia Tech) nailed 19 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists for the winning side and Swedish forward Zaba Bangala (201-2001) accounted for 18 points and 9 rebounds. American guard Jalen Blackmon (190-2002, college: Miami, FL) came up with 29 points and Jonas Delalieux (202-1992) added 15 points and 8 rebounds respectively for Limburg in the defeat. Mechelen moved-up to third place. Loser Limburg United keeps the tenth position with five games lost. They share it with Charleroi and Union Mons. Mechelen will meet Aalst (#6) on the road in the next round. Limburg will play against Kortrijk (#9) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
