Regular Season Round 21: Leuven - Groningen 86-78

Date: February 21, 2026
We could consider it a predictable result in the game between close teams when eleventh ranked Belgian Leuven Bears (11-10) won against at home 10th ranked Dutch Groningen (10-8) 86-78 on Saturday. Leuven dominated down low during the game scoring 56 of its points in the paint compared to Groningen's 36. Leuven forced 20 Groningen turnovers. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 21 assists. American swingman Tytan Anderson (198-2002, college: UNI) nailed 19 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists for the winning side and his fellow American import guard Will Pruitt (190, college: Lipscomb) accounted for 14 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists. Danish forward Dane Erikstrup (208-2003, college: WSU) came up with 16 points and 8 rebounds and American forward Damian Forrest (206-2001, college: N.Alabama, agency: Players Group) added 18 points and 9 rebounds respectively for Groningen in the defeat. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Both coaches tested many bench players and allowed the starting five to rest. Leuven Bears have a solid series of three victories in a row. They moved-up to ninth place, which they share with Brussels. Loser Groningen dropped to the eleventh position with eight games lost. Leuven will meet at home higher ranked Mechelen (#6) in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Groningen will play against Union Mons (#13) and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
