The Belgian League race tightened as Telenet Oostende defeated Belgacom Spirou Charleroi 85-81, lifting its record to 18-9, good for third place, while Spirou clung to the top spot with a 19-8 record. Meanwhile, Antwerp nosed into second with an 18-8 mark after crushing Mons Hainaut 44-74. Oostende appeared to have the game locked up at the end of the third quarter, leading 72-46, but Spirou rallied furiously in the last 10 minutes, nailing 6 three pointers on the way to a 13-35 partial, but it was not enough to steal the victory.

Tornike Shengelia tallied 19 points, Dwayne Broyles 16 and Christophe Beghin 12 in a losing effort.
